Saw Wilco at the King's Theater-really liked the place, old style theater, really nicely renovated (not that much scheduled there that makes me want to drag into Brooklyn, though).

Lobster! I want!

The neighborhood Kings Theater is in is an odd area as well. Huge HOUSES with wrap around porches. Gorgeous.

I will be having mega lobster in two months. Headed back to the Maine coast this summer. I will spend some of the time underwater. There is no Theme Park, however. G'day, Meghan and everyone!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:08pm
Meghan:

mmmmmmmmm, Maine lobster season..... chilly water up that ways...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:11pm
Doug Schulkind:

The chilly water keeps away the (other) tourists. It can't be cold enough!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:13pm
doctorjazz:

That part of Brooklyn is a bit like Ditmas Park, with old Victorians along with apartment houses. It was upper middle class, then the middle class left, became minority. Ditmas Park has gentrified, not sure about the part of Flatbush that King Theater is in, though. It probably will go the way of the rest of Brooklyn, though (the theater is probably a sign of impemding gentrification).
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:15pm

Most likely..... it's not that far out of the way....

I know people willing to dip around here in the Maine water any day now, but even later in the season I gots to be DAMN hot to get in unless local currents bring a warming spasm close to shore.

Still wondering what's keeping me from listening to Slowdive's new album in full. I'd hate to spotify it, but it looks like that's my option.

It's pretty damn good..... I must say.

Still more Jamaican Beef Patty places than Starbucks around there...

I do like this Slowdive!

A whole lot of lower middle class residents of Victorian Flatbush got their homes for around 50 to 100 thou; and now find themselves worth millions.

imagine....... they lucked out!

Some of those houses are totally gorgeous and there are lots and lots of trees. Jealous! (Downside: lots and lots of pirates interfering w/WFMU's signal! Gotta stream it there. Screw you, Radyo Independans, or whoever took your place! Jerks.)

If you can afford a 50k house, you can't afford the taxes on a 1000k house. You have to sell whether you want to move or not. Yes, you make money, but...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:42pm
Meghan:

Yeah I wonder what property taxes are on those houses...... ouch!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:43pm

Gentrification is always coercive.

And I've read of the disappearing, of course, long-time Brooklyn neighborhood institutions...restaurants, delis, etc...that finally take offers too good to refuse or just can't take the enveloping pressures of rising values/taxes.
A borough feature tangent: I happened to look yesterday at the brief preface to A Tree Grows in Brooklyn:
“There's a tree that grows in Brooklyn. Some people call it the Tree of Heaven. No matter where its seed falls, it makes a tree which struggles to reach the sky. It grows in boarded-up lots and out of neglected rubbish heaps. It grows up out of cellar gratings. It is the only tree that grows out of cement. It grows lushly . . . survives without sun, water, and seemingly without earth. It would be considered beautiful except that there are too many of it.”

doctorjazz:

Property taxes in NY, if I remember correctly, don't always get updated to current market prices, so you are often paying much less than it is worth on the market. When it can really catch up, though, is on selling; under certain circumstances, you could owe capital gains, so staying put is sometimes better. (complicated business, though, there are exceptions, and exceptions to the exceptions)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:47pm
Uncle Michael:

I've never lived where property values aren't reassessed or where there's rent control. It's even worse for renters. Your landlord is being taxed out, or wants to cash out and you're not going to be offered a new lease. They're waiting out tenants to sell to a condo developer...or not even waiting.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:48pm
Meghan:

Unlike Jersey City taxes.... ouch! I just did a quick look through Zillow out of curiosity..... They are going for 1.5 mill to 2.5 mill. 7 bedrooms and a double garage.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:51pm
doctorjazz:

It is even so in Westfield NJ, where I llive...political clout has to do with taxes and assessments as well. So, old Victorians that sell for >$1 million, are older than the houses built in the 70's, 80's, etc, and they are valued as less for taxes, even though they sell for so much more on the market. (the age of the houses is the justification for being valued less; newer is better and valued higher, even though the real market sees it the other way).
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:52pm
Meghan:

Damn, even Pre-Forclosure Auctions are at 2 mil
