Dream House


Look carefully...do you see the house hiding in the back? This is my dream property...a house tucked behind a building and a secret garden. Totally run down and ready for me to give some love to. (it is also one block from the subway!)

hi - i used to live in greenpoint. about 16 years ago i asked the owner of the building in the foreground if he wanted to sell the building - which if i am correct it is still standing there without a tenant - i think he lived in the small house in the back - the one you are referring to. i loved both of those structures. he wasn't interested in selling by the way. edgardo

I'm also obsessed with those buildings! I used to walk by a few times a week in my normal routine and loved imagining what sort of business could be in that storefront and how romantic it would be to live in the house in the back. I never knew anyone else took notice of them.

I've drooled over both the one in the front and the one in the back.

I had no idea so many people were interested in the house. Maybe we could form a club and convince the owner to sell.......thanks, by the way, for the comments. No idea one post on apt therapy would lead to people actually reading my silly little blog.
