ParticipantLittle Italy is the wrong example to use. LI is charming, where PB has been aptly called a ‘sh*t hole.’ I was born here and it’s home for me, but Garnet has way too many bars, tatoo/piercing shops, and resale stores. A few of each would be nice, but they just keep coming. Restaurants like the Belgian Fries place has to beg and plead to be able to serve Belgian beer (don’t know if they finally can), while crappy bars line Garnet. A good hole-in-the-wall bar is key for any neighborhood (Tiki Hut and $2 pints of Guiness!), but we don’t need 35 of them. The businesses that are creating this need while profiting should pay to clean up after themselves. If Garnet were a charming place to stroll, grab some munchies and enjoy a cocktail, I’d pony up my coin with a happy little smile. (Although I already pay $6,300 a year in prop taxes, seems like they could do something with that.)

ParticipantI filed. Why not? There’s no way to tell how much it might be, but we might get a free dinner out of it. Can’t hurt.

ParticipantI’m starting to think it might be possible. It’s falling in line with rents. Not too many years ago I remember a beautiful house on Opal going for $400k, and that seemed like a crazy price. I’m hoping for a good strong backlash from the bubble (and I own a house here already).
I do consider the OP area part of PB. It’s probably ’cause one of the kids I grew up with lived over there so it was part of our lives. We hated going over there because of the bike ride, but he had a pool, so we took the hills. But, those 2 houses are too weird.

ParticipantThe house that the OP talks about is definitely odd. While they were building, I wondered who would want it. After it sold, they built another odd one right up against the first one.
We’ve been considering spending $350-400k to add a large bit of sqf onto a house in PB (a tiny old 2bd on a full lot). But I’m starting to think we’ll be able to buy another property here for that kind of money, if we just wait a few years.
