Thread: Changing the Coolant Temp Sensor
Changing the Coolant Temp Sensor
Well, looks like I need to change out my coolant temp sensor. The gauge reads nothing, and when I ground the wire for the sensor the gauge pegs out. So, all that must be ok. It's the side temp sensor next to the exhaust manifold. Will collant come pouring out when I try to pull the old one to put the new one in? Thanks

11-03-2008, 10:05 PM #2if i recall ---yes some coolent will leake out. i get the new sensor ready for install and remove the old on and install the new one. i leave the raditor cap on this will slow the air flowijng into the block and slow the leak some but if you are fast the mess will be light....mike

11-04-2008, 05:58 PM #3I guess I'll get the new sensor, teflon it up good, and then work like a madman to get the old one pulled and the new one in. My goal is to lose as little coolant as is humanly possible. It'll be so nice to be able to see the engine temp again.
11-06-2008, 12:23 PM #4if you are fast enough you might loos a pint to 1/2 gallon at worst i guess. if you got a vaccum pump you can run it off the over flow and might not spill but a drop or two. but you need a catch can so you can pour back in the over flow bottle...mike
11-07-2008, 12:27 PM #5Crawdaddy, yes it will definitly pour out, but like you said, just be ready to throw the new on in quick and you should loose too much coolant, then you can top off the coolant at the radiator.
11-07-2008, 01:09 PM #6Yes you will have water coming out, so that kills the idea of using liquid Teflon. You will need to use the tape, use just two wraps as it is essential the the the treads make good contact with the block to ensure correct readings on the gauge.
Happy 2 Wheeler!

text: Continuous Corn Fields See Most Benefit From Stover Removal DuPont research indicates continuous corn fields in no- or minimum-till need about 2.3 tons of stover per acre to maintain organic matter. Published on: Dec 4, 2012 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Story RSS Permalink Print Corn residue increases proportionally with corn yields, creating management challenges for growers. To help address those, agronomists and scientists from DuPont Pioneer and DuPont Industrial Biosciences teamed up to conduct research on the impact of residue removal on the long-term agronomic and environmental integrity of fields. Stover is also evaluated for cellulosic ethanol production, which has benefits for both farmers and biofuel producers. "In fields where partial stover removal is an option, a sustainable stover harvest program provides value to the grower without negatively impacting the health and productivity of the soil," says Andy Heggenstaller, DuPont Pioneer agronomy research manager for cellulosic ethanol. "There are three primary factors we examine with growers considering stover harvest, including field productivity level, crop management practices and erosion potential."Continuous Corn Fields See Most Benefit From Stover Removal Individual field evaluation is necessary as stover removal is not an option for every field. In some highly productive systems, residue may even be excessive as a result of increased yields, improved stalk quality and reduced tillage practices. Highly productive, relatively flat, continuous corn fields are best suited for stover removal and tend to see the greatest agronomic benefits. In these fields, corn stover production generally exceeds the minimum amount needed to maintain soil health and productivity, making sustainable stover harvest a viable option. In high yielding areas of the Corn Belt, many growers are chopping stalks, increasing tillage or using a combination of these two methods to further stalk decomposition. In areas where residue management is a critical factor in production decisions, partial stover harvest could expand rotation and farming options. For example, reducing excess residue could allow increased flexibility in managing corn following corn, particularly in the northern Corn Belt where residue decomposition tends to be slower. Stover removal also may eliminate tillage operations and other practices used primarily for residue management, resulting in substantial production cost savings. Agronomic advantages of partial stover removal include accelerated spring soil warming and drying, improved stand establishment, reduced nitrogen immobilization, reduced disease pressure, expanded rotation options and reduced tillage. Studies also have shown yield advantages for corn when excess stover is removed. The remaining residue in a sustainable stover harvest program ensures soil erosion prevention, soil organic carbon maintenance and soil fertility management.

DuraPlus Collection 6" Class A Chimney Pipe Chimney Cap with Spark Arrestor
The DuraPlus 6" Class A Chimney Pipe Chimney Cap with Spark Arrestor is required where chimney pipe terminates above the roof line. Removable screws allow for cleaning of the chimney and spark arrestor screen. Made of stainless steel.
- Inner Diameter: 6"
- Outer Diameter: 12"
- Height: 7"
- Comes with Spark Arrestor Screen
- Material: Stainless Steel
DuraPlus is designed to stay cool on the outside, to provide a hot draft on the inside, to boost stove efficiency, and to provide for a fire-safe design that protects both the chimney and the building. This triple-wall chimney features two insulating layers (ceramic blanket, plus air space). The ceramic blanket insulation is held securely in position, eliminating hot spots common with loose-fill type insulations. In the event of a creosote fire, the compressible blanket insulation permits the chimney liner to expand outwardly in a radial direction. DuraPlus Chimney is a triple-wall, all-fuel chimney for use with wood stoves, fireplaces, furnaces, boilers, stoves, ranges, water heaters, or other appliances fueled by wood, oil, coal, or gas.

Robonaut becomes 1st humanoid robot in space
Robotkind got NASA to send one of their own into space today--an unassuming humanoid "robot butler" that will be in the perfect spot to destroy Earth from orbit.
Sporting a terrifying mask, touting dumbbells, and tipping the scales at 330 pounds, Robonaut 2 has convinced just about everyone that despite its appearance it's not evil incarnate.
Before the macho droid lifted off in the Space Shuttle Discovery on the orbiter's final mission today at 1:53 p.m. PT, it tweeted innocently, "Excited to be a part of our nation's current & future space technology. Investments are critical to both our future in space and life on Earth."
Notice how it didn't say "humanity's future." That's a dead giveaway. It's clearly referring to the Robopocalypse (and I'm not talking about the forthcoming novel by Daniel Wilson).
It's no surprise that Robonaut 2, or R2, has pretty vague job aboard the International Space Station. The robot co-developed by General Motors is supposed to help the crew--and interact with it. It will be set up for certain tasks, handle tools and flip switches, working autonomously or by remote control. … Read more

Prototype Klingon Bird-of-Prey
In 2293, Kirk was to escort this Klingon battle cruiser, and Chancellor Gorkon, through Federation space to the Chancellor's peace meeting on Earth.
During the mission, Kronos One was attacked -- seemingly by Enterprise -- and had its artificial gravity disabled. The ship was then boarded by two assassins, wearing gravity boots, who proceeded to assassinate Chancellor Gorkon before beaming away.
Following the assassination, while under the command of General Chang, Kronos One turned about and locked its weapons on Enterprise, prompting Kirk to signal his vessel's surrender.

Intro to Painting: Painting History: 1828-Present
Course No. PTG221 Credits: 3.0
Faculty Lane Cooper
This is a beginning painting course. It is a prerequisite for painting electives and all advanced painting courses. This course introduces students to painting through historic painting practices and conventions using oil-based paint as the primary material. Students are asked to approach painting pre-photographically (as if the year were 1828). Students are introduced to the fundamentals of a traditional painting practice with an emphasis on observational rendering and applied color theory beginning with Newton. Students will learn about color mixing, brush types, support construction and general canvas preparation. Students will paint from life learning how to capture the three- dimensional world on a two-dimensional surface as well as how to use material working through shape, form, texture, and mark to create an illusion of space and mass. Through critiques, discussions, readings, slide presentations, and museum visits, students will develop vocabulary and critical thinking skills essential to their studio practice as well as a sense of the history of painting leading to contemporary practices. Offered fall.

There is much that the latest developments in neuroscience can teach legal professionals about negotiations. This is particularly true when it comes to how people process information and make decisions. Mediators and lawyers alike can benefit particularly from what neuroscientists have revealed about priming and framing, two potent filtering mechanisms that can either inflame the emotional barriers to settlement or potentially defuse them.

Not sure whether Vegas has the feature to reverse playback in the middle/at some point of a segment. If not, just clip the segment up to the point where you want to reverse it, then copy it to the timeline twice, and change the playback settings in the second segment to reverse. (Editing hint: This will look a lot better if you slow down and/or stop the video at the point of reversing direction). |

When Chef Paul Griffith needs a good steak, he goes to Land and Sea Emporium, a butcher shop in unincorporated Miami-Dade, between South Miami and Pinecrest.
Griffith, a private chef who has clients in Coral Gables, has been calling in his orders ahead of time since the shop opened in July.
One of my clients recommended him. I come here three to four times a week. He takes care of you, said Griffith, who is the former chef de cuisine at the Sagamore in New York City. I have a very demanding clientele and a flavorful dish needs good ingredients.
Marlon Lai Fang, who co-owns the shop at 6655 S. Dixie Hwy., double checks the product is cut correctly and check-marks the list, as he puts the wrapped products in a white plastic bag. Griffith swings in and out of the shop in minutes.
When you understand that your mistakes could impact your clients business, you want to make sure that every detail is perfect, said Lai Fang. Some chefs dont know how to cut meat properly. so we do it for them.
The seafood selection is seasonal. Lai Fang goes to the market, and he and the Master Butcher Eduardo Rubi filet all the fish by hand.
I go to three to four different places for sea food. I dont buy an abundance of it. I look for freshness and focus on high quality, Lai Fang said. The presentation for sea food is fun, because you can add curves and make designs.
The shop also offers specialty products such as macaroni and lobster for $11, poached salmon salad for $13, pre-cut seasoned skirt beef marinated with chimichurri sauce for $13 a pound, sirloin kebabs marinated in Kentucky bourbon sauce for $9 a pound, Cornish hens for $8 a piece, and gluten-free breaded chicken for $7 to $9. The beef selection includes Australian Wagyu beef for $27 a pound.
Kobe beef from Japan is illegal in the U.S. It is a delicacy because its tender and juicy, Lai Fang said. A golfer named Greg Norman produces this high-quality style Wagyu beef in a farm in Australia. The cattle are raised on beer, and it is actually someones job to massage it.
Rubi, who greets costumers with a smile, left a job with Fresh Market to work at Land and Sea Emporium. He said he loves working for Lai Fang.
Big supermarkets caused butcher shops to close, but I think consumers are finding out that they are saving time and money but sacrificing quality, said Rubi, 60. At a shop like this, you develop relationships with your clients and give them attention and good service.
Lai Fang, now 46, worked as a butcher at a supermarket when he was 19. His parents are from Trinidad and Tobago. The meat cutters union helped him pay for his computer science degree at Queens College in New York. And he moved to Tampa to work as a network engineer for JP Morgan Chase.
But then the economy took a bad turn, and he and his wife were laid off. The couple has a 14-year-old daughter and an 8-year-old son. Lai Fang decided it was time to open his first business. He, his wife and brother invested about $250,000 of their life savings on the shop.
I had a vision. Every detail in this room was carefully thought out. One of the reasons why we picked this location was that there is ample parking, Lai Fang said.
The shop also delivers sandwiches and other lunch items. Lai Fang also plans to offer a selection of kosher products next month.
Im working very hard from 6:30 in the morning to 11 at night, so that I can make sure that every customer is satisfied, Lai Fang said. Word of mouth is our form of advertising and its working. My goal is to open another shop like this one in Miami.

Dating & Single Living
Brenda though there does need to be a physical attraction and physical appearance does plays a role in that part of the relationship.
I know 4 men who are blind and have found SO's online.. 3 of them are from here.. Maybe they know something the rest of y'all don't..
I know 4 men who are blind and have found SO's online.. 3 of them are from here.. Maybe they know something the rest of y'all don't..
So here's a question for all the ladies: "what's the right approach to get y'all's attention?" I've sent emotigrams that range from a simple hi, a mention of something specific/interesting in her profile/pictures, sent compliments, and even a direct statement expressing my interest. To my dismay, very few even acknowledged the message. What's more interesting is the fact that I've seen some of these women posting on threads bemoaning the lack of interest they're getting from the men on this site. What's a man to do? I wish y'all ladies can explain further or cite specific examples of what we guys need to do to catch your fancy. Admittedly I am no Abercrombie and Fitch model, nor do I come close to looking like Brad Pitt, but is there some way an average guy can have a chance to even get to know a lady that catches his fancy? I would love to hear what the women have to say.
I've always made it my practice to respond, but I have plenty that don't respond to me... It used to bother me at the beginning, but now I figure it's their loss..
hi Jamie!
Goodness I am going through the SAME THING! I'm not sure exactly why dating sites can be so frustrating... but hang in there. I think everyone goes through this. Not sure why.. but once God let's you see what your vocation is.. or who your wife will be... all the suffering will seem like NOTHING. All of your suffering is not going to waste. God Bless
I have to admit, sometimes I judge a book by it's cover, but that is only because I know I get judged by my cover. But there are issues for both men and women. I got a message from a guy, started to talk to him, thought there was a connection going and then he tells me that he only joing because his parents made him. But we have to be patient. God has something in store for each one of us. I know I struggle with remembering that all the time.
I think that you would certainly improve your chances of a positive response if your messages include basic and proper punctuation and sentence structure. The punctuation doesn't need to be perfect, but it should be sufficient to make your messages easier to read and understand. If this is something with which you need help, consider working with a tutor for a few sessions to improve those skills.
Just my thoughts.
Goo luck!
Hi Jaime
How are you?
I have been on SEVERAL sites...eHarmony, Match, plentyoffish, zoosk, Catholic Singles and CM...most I have re subscribed, over the last 10 years.
I have thought about this a lot.
I think that there are some different things to think about:
First of all, do you REALLY want to find the ONE, are you really ready? Do you have room in your life? Sometimes I think we are so desperate, we go online. I personally think MANY men on here (and prob. some women) are simply curious, they want to "SEE" what's out there, it's just for fun....
Secondly, I think we all need to be realistic. We all want the perfect ONE...but, look at us! We are not perfect, we have to step down a few notches and be realistic.
Thirdly, I believe we are attracted to a "TYPE" sometimes we need to look past that...change our ethnicity requirement, or height...or distance, we might be missing out on something or someone!
Lastly, It's not up to us. LET GO AND LET GOD! There are A LOT of single people on this site....if we cannot find the one, I think we need to let it go, God will provide.
I have been waiting a long time. I have learned a lot about myself and the past four check points I've mentioned. I have done ALL of these things. I am still single, so I have to believe, it's still not my time. :)
God Bless and LET GO AND LET GOD
Hi Donna!
I sent this message last night but realized this morning that I didn't reply to one of your messages so most likely you didn't realize I had sent it. Ooops - I'm new to the forums!!
Now for my question:
Is there or has there ever been a Canadian CM event? I live on the East Coast and there are only 7 men in my area!! (Unfortunately they are either non-subscribers or they aren't interested as it's been impossible to connect with them )
I'd LOVE to meet a good Catholic man. Any takers?!!

Health informatics is a relatively new field. It combines information technology, information sciences with the field of medicine in order to devise systems to validate, generate, secure and integrate medical and health-related data.
The idea and purpose behind health informatics is to deliver a more effective healthcare solution to patients. This is done by gathering various techniques, systems and resources together to maximize technology, medical knowledge and other available advances. This system is used in many healthcare fields such as pharmacy, nursing, dentistry and others.
Also known as medical informatics, this system uses hardware, software, networks and other such technology to gather information. Information that is gathered and processed includes medical and clinical directives, medical terminology, information technology and so on. The information derived from these processes can be applied to medical settings such as general and primary care practices, hospitals and rehabilitation centers.
This new technology uses these information systems to create a more efficient and effective operations systems within the medical fields — particularly in the areas of medical, administration and clinical information and data.
Informatics emphasizes, in particular, the need for implementing a uniform system of electronic records. By creating a uniform, easily accessed system, the results include a reduction of medical costs, as well as an improvement in overall patient care. In addition, because so much information can be easily shared billing, scheduling, research and information sharing are impacted in a positive way.
As this new field continues to grow and develop, more applications will be delivered that will provide for better, less expensive medical care to patients.

I've been pushing our Bionic Commando on Wii petition hard. I'll keep doing so until we make some progress, be that for the positive or negative. A lot of you know that we are working to the get the new BC game on the Wii, but there is an XBLA/PSN remake that we are gunning for as well. It's a remake of the NES classic. How in the hell can we not get this on the Wii? At the very least, I would hope we can get this remake on WiiWare. If not, it's a blatant insult to long-time Nintendo fans. Check out the trailer for the remake below. Once again, this is XBLA/PSN only as of right now. After checking out the trailer, I think it would be hard to find a Wii owner this wouldn't want that on WiiWare. It's part of the package deal, and it's all part of this petition. Man, I hope something happens from this. I know that I am doing my best to make it reality, and many of you are as well. http://www.petitiononline.com/0819/petition.html

I've heard recent limitations on the GC that with those mini discs they can't hold much data, blah blah blah, and the games don't have much of anywhere to go? Anyone beg to differ? I kinda of want to get one, but i don't know how they are going to last game-wise.

Behind two first half goals, the San Luis Obispo High girls soccer team stayed undefeated in Pac 7 play and handed rival Arroyo Grande its first loss of the season. The Tigers blanked the visiting Eagles 2-0 on Friday afternoon.
Taylor Wampler scored the first goal of the game in the 16th minute. It came on a corner kick, Wampler first headed the ball toward the near post, but it was deflected away. The senior defender followed her shot and buried the ball into the back of the net.
Just three minutes later, the Tigers struck again when Kelsey Harper drilled a shot from just inside the box over the goalie's reach and just inside the crossbar to give San Luis Obispo a commanding 2-0 lead in the first half.
The Tigers improved to 4-0 in league and 11-6-1 on the year. The Eagles dropped to 3-1-1 on the season and 9-1-6 for the season.

SAVE What do people think about 580 Carroll?
They've had pretty good traffic at the Open Houses so far, and according to the broker, has 4 under contract. What do people think about this place?
at that location paying almost $1000 psf, expensive to say the least. you can get deals in prime manhattan that will rival this.
Also, within Park Slope, that location is not ideal. Between 4th and 5th ave is not nearly as good as being closer to the park.
I think it looks great. Very Cool, Indeed. I am really considering purchasing a two bedroom. It is close to park, restaurants, and it has a lovely garden. THe units I was looking at were around $960k, shy of $800/sf. The design is pretty unique. Does anyone know any other small developments that offer similar amenities, Parking, Garden and Large Panoramic Windows? Thank you.
I stopped by today's open house and thought the building was rather lovely. I currently live on the Upper West Side and my husband and I have been thinking of moving to Park Slope.
Does anyone know why Park Slope is rated the top neighborhood in NYC??? Carroll Street seemed rather pretty with all those small row homes. Seems like there are a bunch of great restaurants up the block? Al Di La, BLUE RIBBON, and some new great Italian Place.
What does 4th Avenue have to do with the this development? It seems nicely snug in the middle in the block, with a rather appealing setback.
Does anyone know the story of the building on the corner, the new big development. What will happen to that block when 60 new units are unleashed. I imagine it will only get better, no? New developments seem to bring in higher income families that take care of the area. Or am I mistaken.
Very Intriguing. Overall I thought the building was rather affordable when you compare it to the new developments on the Upper West Side.
Yes, Very Intriguing.
Annabelle - you work for the brokers or the developers of 580 Carroll I imagine? ;)
We really liked this building too but HATE the kitchen layout - it's basically a wall of appliances in the living room. Have never seen this type of kitchen in new construction in Park Slope (where people actually cook). We were so disappointed - having a kitchen like that is just a deal-breaker - it's like 20 Pine only worse.
Otherwise, the units are really, really nice - love the windows and the location is great. I actually think it's priced pretty well.
The kitchens are fine, they are actually very pretty and clean. Stainless Steel Marble and White Lacquer...of course, i rather have a classic eight on the upper west side, but that is a fortune. For a high ceiling, hugh frameless windowed apartment in Park Slope, how else can you maximize space.
Actually, my sister lived in Denmark, she said the apartment has a northern european feel. Very Efficient. Maybe, I am too open minded.
How much is are three bedroom with closed kitchens going for in Park Slope?
Annabelle - You sound like you are HIGH on life.... Does anyone know if you can use the garden for entertaining? Can owners have garden parties on the lawn? Or outdoor movies?
How negotiable is the developer...i want to make an offer on the penthouse three bedroom on the fifth floor- but it seems a bit expensive...what is the going rate for parking in the Slope?
When do they expect closings?
Yes the kitchen looks sleek and modern but seems to be suitable only for making a sandwich. For a family that cooks quite often, it will take a lot of effort to keep the open kitchen clean and presentable, since it's so incorporated into the living space. We really liked the apartment and building too but the kitchen was the show stopper. Adding and island will make the kitchen much more practical, but then there won't be much living room left. Too bad...
Lots of people now seem to want an open kitchen - when I show places with a separate kitchen people always want to know if they can knock the walls down between the kitchen and living room. I guess it's because so much of at-home entertaining usually winds up with one group hanging out in the kitchen and another in the living room if they're separate
We live in Tribeca and want to have our first new baby. Who cooks in NYC. Both my husband and I work so much that we typically go out or order in. Although we do like to cook occasionally, I can not imagine those kitchens are inoperable.
It must be nice to be a stay at home mom. I just feel like that being independent and earning a good income is so much more important to me than being a slave to any type of kitchen.
just reviewed 6 floorplans and i can say that most of the apartments do not have a kitchen or a livingroom. in any building, even 1960's, you get a 12X20 livingroom. in these units, they shoe in a breadbox kitchen. the only other places where i've seen this is one room studios.
Sandra, if you'll decide to have your yuppie friends come over for a lunch or dinner, you'll have no space to even cut up your salad. just do catering and... wait, you don't even have enough space to put the platters that were brought in for you in the kitchen.....
There's a lot of marketingspeak in this thread. Or should I say Large Panoramic Windows Are Very Intriguing?
I like the building, very Miami. It's a bit of an odd duck in its unMiami location, but still appealing. The main issue is that they crafted 2 and 3 bedroom apartments but the layouts are not family-friendly at all, with floor to ceiling windows in the bedroom, not much storage place and the dreaded DLK. They're bachelor pads for exhibitionists, not that they're anything wrong with that.
So what other developments look good in the market?
What a beautiful building- great amenities, with really nice finishes! I l have looked at many condos and this one is by far my favorite. I am hoping that thinks will all fall in place and i will be able to buy an apartment here! I'm checking out mortgage options now.
Pssst! You forgot to change handle, don't look now but your panties are showing.
I remember you now...you were that man in the corner picking his nose and touching his pee-wee....be nice when you talk about women.
Silly Boy.
you're doing this building a real disservice. Now any prospective buyer will find this thread, and realize the brokers are slimy douchebags.
wow this person created all these handles just to have a conversation with herself. don't they realize that all the posters on here know the names of the other posters and a bunch of new handles all in a row is a dead give away for fake posts by brokers.
"Overall I thought the building was rather affordable when you compare it to the new developments on the Upper West Side. "
Yeah, that happens a lot when you compare two completely unrelated things. However, if you compare the prices to actual comps, you'll see what a colossal ripoff they are. Yes, Very Intriguing.
You're welcome.
We appreciate all your comments, criticisms, and feedback. Developing a building of this quality, style, and nature has been a pleasure and a challenge. 580 Carroll is honest in its use of materials, intelligently designed and provides a clean and elegant backdrop for people's daily lives. We hope that it's an asset to the neighborhood.
We stand behind the modern design and the quality of construction; we look forward to you making it your home.
Should you have any questions regarding our development, please feel free to contact me: firstname.lastname@example.com
Warm Regards,
Sean P. Ludwick
"I think it's not in Park Slope."
Matt, no offense, but it's amazing how many things you get wrong on this board. Is Al di la not in Park Slope either?
Sean, I think the lesson from this thread is that honesty is great, for materials, construction AND marketing. Creating fake comments on Streeteasy, so badly, is sales malpractice.
Sean, can you share with us your "intelligent design" aspects of having no kitchens, wall of windows in bedrooms in a non-hirise development and smallish bedrooms. let's not even start with being overpriced for the area.
not to mention that this ill conceived miami beach style condo looks out on the real cheesy queens inspired rental across the street with rents starting at 1800 ...for that you will pay sean ludwicks ridiculous prices?..not to mention the two new really loud bars opened up around the corner on fourth avenue...a loud beer hall and a live rock venue
i wonder if the toxic waste from the superfunded gowanus has a plume reaching this far..i know that the "whole foods" site on third avenue maybe three blocks away site is so polluted as to require remediation..did they tet the subsoil conditions here...i remember sean ludwicks reason for for endlessly asking for a variance was that their due diligence did not find out about the underground concrete vaults from the electric sustation (or something like that) that was formerly located here...did they ever test for radon or toxic waste?
"Park Slope doesn't start until 6th Avenue.
This building is in GOWANUS."
So Park Place is in Gowanus? I love how the Park Slope border war thing gets rehashed every couple of months, but this is as egregious as I've seen.
Anyway, has anyone actually seen these yet?
These are Loft Apartments, lofts have open kitchens! LOFT! New Construction with Loft Apartments...Lofts are open spaces, not confined to SoHo or Dumbo...Why is that so hard to understand....and this is certainly in PARK SLOPE....its PS 321 and its down the road from Al Di La. What else do you need to understand that this Park Slope? The building looks great...good luck!
This is a great looking building in my favorite part of Park Slope. I looked at 3 different 2 bedrooms here a few weeks ago. The kitchens look odd in the distorted photos, but actually feel right when you are actually in the room. If you don't like the totally open layout you could always install an island of some sort. The rooms are not large, but are smartly proportioned. The giant windows make the spaces feel much larger than they are. The overexposed bathroom on the second floor seemed a little odd, there's plenty of room for a cool screen or shade though. I was a bit disappointed with some of the finishing work. The marble shelf glued to the edge of the bathtub, for example, looked home-made and had the perfect deep crevices for growing mold and mildew. All of the minor flaws I noticed could easily be remedied. Overall the building seemed solid and comfortable. The entry garden is wonderful. I've looked at dozens of new apartments all over Brooklyn and this is definitely one of the better quality developments out there. Check out Third & Bond too; it's similarly priced and the apartments are beautiful.
how many of the comments here are developers posing as bloggers and how many are bloggers posing as developers?
this is a ridiculous thread. I have never seen more disguised brokers / developers in one thread
Wasnt there some conroversy with this building, with zoning?
Wasnt it in Brownstoner?
Its great location, but i worry about quality of construction.
It was many places - they wanted a variance due to "hardship" (AKA lack of research and due diligence) and wanted to build three townhouses in what is the front garden area, in front of the primary building. The BSA rejected their proposal:
(from Curbed)
The BSA passed along its actual resolution, which doesn't look too kindly on the developers' pleas: "The applicant's inability to realize a reasonable return is due to mismanagement rather than actual costs...any hardship claimed by the applicant is self-created." Choice words!
@Looking555, I did look at the building carefully and with a couple of friends. I think overall the construction is very solid. As I mentioned earlier, I think they didn't spend enough time on all of the finishing details but all of that can easily be fixed.
@oliver65 and @dcorreale, I know! Several of these comments sound very fishy to me.
@NYCMatt, why laugh at my what I consider to be my favorite part of PS? I've lived here for 6 years and love being away from the hubub of the nearly dead 7th Ave, close to all the good spots on 5th, an easy walk to Smith and Court Streets, the subway stop a block away, etc.
When brokers are this absurdly shady--Annabelle12, SandraJuhn and whomever else--I just stay away. If they're willing to lie and pretend to be people actually looking to buy instead of looking to sell, I'd be worried about everything in the building they're selling. Especially new construction. Personally, I'd never buy in a new building. Too many ways for builders to cut corners and screw you over. Too many ways for them to push you through the final walk through without actually confirming that everything is ok. And I firmly believe that some brokers have no qualms whatsoever about screwing a person by selling them a poorly constructed apartment over so that they get their 3% cut.
Just my two sense--I'd stay FAR FAR away from this building, given the apparent integrity of the people trying to sell it.
Ok to sum up what I have read on this blog.
1) Negative blog comments are always better than positive ones - Positive people are losers.
2) Real Estate is only a good investment when you can steal the property or if it is FREE - Renting Is Better
3) All developers and brokers are thieves, liars, and should never be trusted - Real Estate Market is Bad
4) Architects do not know what they are building - Common folks now design better
5) 5th Avenue is not Park Slope -Park Slope is only on 8th Ave - Everyone else is a Poser.
To sum up this ridiculous thread.
no robin the thing that sums it up best is that brokers and developers shouldn't pose as general buyers posting about a building. they always read as transparent and wind up embarrassing themselves and their projects.
and by robin i mean sandra, annabelle, monica etc
I've walked by this building several times. Looked at the website. My view - front is not my taste, prices a bit too high.
Apparently the developers are under water and very difficult to deal with. Sounds like they are trying to squeeze every penny until the bitter end. Sad that they are not living in reality and have a false perception of what these units are worth.
I personally LOVE the building. My husband and I live in NYC now and we have a similar kitchen. We purchased an island like cart that helps with some of the space. When guests come over, we love the fact that we can push it to the side and have an extremely open feel. (Note - We do cook. I try to cook everyday actually. I think it's really about what you personally are looking for...For me, I'd rather have an open space then a full fledge kitchen.)
We also fell in love with this area in Park Slope. We are pretty set on new construction and have been looking at much of what Park Slope has to offer. I love that this building is not on fourth ave and that it is set back from the road. We actually just put in an offer over the weekend so hopefully we'll be there soon!
What the hell is up with this building? They have 10 units available and none listed. http://www.brownstoner.com/blog/2012/03/mysterious-broker-switch-at-580-carroll-street/ I e-mailed the broker from Corcoran and radio silence.
I went to take a look at some of the units in this building. I thought the neighborhood was nice and much better than where some of the other new construction buildings in "park slope" are located, like 15th st. Although it looks a little out of place around the other buildings, I still thought it was a nice building, at first.
The first negative thing I noticed was that the doornob for the door leading into the garden from the sidewalk was broken and rusted. For a building that was barely a year old, that seemed like a huge sign of poor workmanship or a lack of maintenance... or both. As far as the individual units, I viewed a few and didn't really care for the layout. Most people want open kitchens these days but they still want some sort of a separation between their kitchen and living areas, like an island or a counter. Having the appliances take up almost half the wall of the kitchen/living room in a 1000 sq ft apartment makes for an awkward layout. Plus, some of the units I looked at had a weird bathroom layout where the master bath had one sink while the second bath had two. And the units, although they were "finished" looked to have quality issues here and there - some of the tiling in the bathrooms were crooked or misaligned, fixtures had fitment issues, one of the interior doors didn't sit correctly when we tried to close it, etc.
And my final impression was when it came down to discussing the price with the broker. He informed me that the developer would not negotiate regarding the price. That made it pretty easy for me as to what decision I was going to make.
any updates from people who live in the building? So far the comments are typical of a new construction either in williamsburg or elsewhere in the city. The project might be overpriced but it is unclear if one pays for the uniquiness of the building. Owners? thoughts?
Neighborhood is nice, although kind of close to Gowanus. The building looks good, although feels odd in PS. The deal breaker is the kitchen layout, NO counter space. Not enough cabinets as well, just some shelves. You don't have room to put in an island, otherwise you don't have enough space for dinning and living. It is a good looking building, but not practical or functional, especially for family with kids. Common charge is expensive, considering the amenities only including elevator and a small garden. Stairwell seems unfinished with exposed concrete walls. The stairwell makes you feel like in a dungeon. Rooftop seems have bad finish too, the materials seems cheap and melting under the autumn sun.

Nearly 250 works of art -- including pieces by Chagall, Matisse, Picasso and Toulouse-Lautrec -- are being sold online through a national auction ending Monday, the U.S. Marshals Service said.
The 245 art works were forfeited to the government after being seized in several federal court cases, the agency said in a statement.
On Thursday afternoon, the highest bid was $68,000 -- for a Rembrandt -- but some pieces were as low as $30.
All items up for auction were used to facilitate a crime or obtained with proceeds from a crime, said Lynzey Donahue, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Marshals Service.
Proceeds from the auctions will go to victims of those crimes, the release said.
Much of the art for sale, she said, came from prosecutions against three individuals:
-- Mark Dreier, 62, of New York, who was convicted in 2009 of fraud and money laundering involving $400 million;
-- Justin French, 41, of Richmond, Virginia, who was convicted in 2011 of stealing millions from federal and state tax credit programs;
-- Shawn Merriman, 49, of Aurora, Colorado, who was convicted in 2010 of defrauding millions from 67 investors in a Ponzi scheme.
Gaston & Sheehan Auctioneers are hosting the auction on their website, www.txauction.com, Donahue said.
She said the U.S. Marshals Service usually does several auctions a year.
"Each (geographic) district usually does their own as far as cars, but for things like art and jewelry we'll consolidate it and do a few a year," she said.
The U.S. Marshals Service has a national contract with Gaston & Sheehan, Donahue said. She added that every year the service solicits bids from companies that want the contract.
