“I’m most interested right now in Jackson Heights… for me and a lot of the readers in Brooklyn, there are lots of beautiful prewar apartments that you can get for half the price of what they’d be in Park Slope.” – Brownstoner founder Jonathan Butler, NYTimes 6/28/13 This is the place…built in 1916 by the architect George H. Wells, this beautiful, sunny 5-room apartment signals the beginning of Wells’s successful career in Jackson Heights. The building is located on 82nd Street, in the heart of the Historic District.
