We had 5 houses in Greenwich trade today.  I'm not sure if this means much, other than people wanting to close before Christmas week. We have seen a decent amount of closing activity, but not much "to contract" activity.

There are some great deals out there.  174 Putnam Park is one of them.  This co-op in Putnam Park was originally listed for $530k two years ago and today finally sold for $345k.  With 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths, this was a great opportunity to get into Greenwich.

54 Doubling ($1.695m) went into contract the day before Thanksgiving and is now available again; too bad for the sellers.  It's a really neat home that someone will enjoy.  Yes, it is close to the street, but Doubling doesn't get that much traffic and you really feel protected on the property.

After taking a little Thanksgiving vacation, 24 Crescent is back on the market at $1.449m.  Although the property backs up to the off-ramp off I-95, the house has a great backyard, is on one of my favorite streets and has tons of charm.  It's an interesting plus/minus play for a potential buyer who wants to stay in the mid $1s and wants the [...]

Nothing like preparing for the inevitable snow with a movie about those climbing a mountain."Jon Krakauer's blockbuster book,"Into Thin Air," chronicled the tragic 1996 Mount Everest climb in which eight climbers lost their lives. In "Everest," the IMAX documentary, the story is picked up and follows the team who continued on to reach the [...]

Seriously, first Betteridge and now the Apple Store?The Daily Greenwich reporting:"The Apple store on Greenwich Avenue was burglarized early Tuesday by five unknown suspects, taking thousands of dollars worth of [...]

There are few things I remember more vividly about Greenwich than the Greenwich Avenue lit up through the holidays.  It's a great time of the year to take a drive down the avenue.  I'm not very elegant with my words, so I'll leave the similes to the [...]
