Havemeyer Sale

32 Halsey Drive, priced at $1.495 million, closed yesterday at $1.575, NYC (10021) buyers. I’’m pretty sure that a couple of us rented the identical house next door many (many) years ago. Its exterior remains the same except that the single car garage has been converted to much-needed living space. The interior has been updated and improved, but I was struck when living there how well built these houses were, for a 1946 development.

Small, but serviceable backyard, and Havemeyer is a nice neighborhood — certainly when compared to the streets of New York these days. Keep ‘em coming, Mayor Adams.
