From Curbed:...it was first on the market in mid '09 for $5 million, then dropped to $2.5 million, then back up to $4.9 million until March. After a few months off, it's now back on the market, asking $4.5 million.

Why your neighborhood is full of Queens Crap
"The difference between dishonest and honest graft: for dishonest graft one worked solely for one's own interests, while for honest graft one pursued the interests of one's party, one's state, and one's personal interests all together." - George Washington Plunkitt

That thing has been on the market for 20 years - its about time he stops milking this place for attention.
Go inside. Its a disaster.
But the basement is interesting.

yea, back in the seventies we used to drive by at night and count the caddies and olds 98s.
heh heh
Any ideas what will happen to it? Next to a sewage plant. Needs lots of work. Possibly heavily mortaged.

This has been an on-again-off-again piece on the market since the early 90s when its owner Michael Halberian first wanted the Queens Historical Society to "take it off his hands" for the "right price".
This old Manhattan restaurateur ("Knickerbockers") he's been crying "too high" real estate taxes on the property forever.
H-m-m-m...what did he do with all those 1970s profits?
Maybe fellow Armenian Chuck Apelian will buy it with the profit he makes for approving "Flushing Commons"!
Have you ever met a poor Armenian?
I haven't.

its astoria. get a mortgage from one of the local 'banks' and add some 'extensions' on to it. complain and give landmarking a bad name, etc.
about how many bunks do you think would fit?
Is that a bathtub in the wine celler WTF ?
I think the owner intended to open a restaurant in the basement...complete with p anels
The "bathtub" is a Greco/Roman (LOL) where private parties with party girls (or boys?) might (?) play???
You know those horny Armenians...always on the prowl...they'd fuck a rock if nothing else was available (LOL)!
Ooops...should have read (lost in transmission) "Complete with booths separated by stained glass panels".
Armenians, Greeks, Jews, Gujarati Parsees - they are the "First Ones" of "Babylon Five".
