Harley Davidson Housing

We are trying to find a dry, safe and covered spot to park a motorcycle. We asked around at the usual places (parking garages etc.), but they all were asking around 175/month for to park it. In other words, it’s as expensive as parking a car.

Do you know of any company (real estate/ motorcycle repair/ what have you) who would be willing to store the motorcycle where it doesn’t bather? We would be willing to pay around 50$ a month. It might be a nice little extra something for someone who has a dead spot where they can’t really park/put anything?

Please contact: Ben @ 347-380-1210

LIKE NEW 2010 Raleigh Women's Bike - Dark Purple - Plus bonus! - $250

A year-old Raleigh Venture, ~150 miles. 16" frame, a medium, see below for geometry specifics. Fit a 5'3" woman comfortably, but could easily go a little bigger or a little smaller. The frame is a step-through women's frame, but could obviously be a great comfortable bike for a (shorter) male also. Purchased just a year ago at a local bike shop. Tremendously comfortable bike, great for cruising around quickly in an upright position, and simple rear-derailleur only drivetrain. Not to mention, a gorgeous dark purple! 

This is a true "bike shop" bike at a Target price!

See pictures here: http://newyork.craigslist.org/brk/bik/2548267509.html

Also includes (the bonus!):
Bike Computer (Bell 12-function)
Upgraded thinner, slicker tires (26 x 1.5) with new tubes, we'll include the originals which are a little wider and nubbier - great for comfort, but a little slower.
Waterbottle Cage
Kickstand

Bike features:
SUPER comfortable seat with suspension seatpost
Ergonomic grips
Durable steel frame
7 speed Shimano Drivetrain with "Megarange" (34t at the lowest = super low gear!)
Rack and fender mounts

For Sale: One-of-a-kind Blacklight Taj Mahal Painting

Hi Ditmas Park neighbors!

I would like to sell this very unique piece of art! I love it, but we just don't have the room for it anymore in our small apartment. My friend from college painted this black light painting several years ago as part  of an awesome series of black light skyline paintings. He is a very talented painter and metal working artist who actually made the frame as well! I purchased the painting and frame for several hundred dollars but am willing to part with it for $200 - or best offer- (black light included).

The photos can be seen by viewing the below links. Please contact me with any questions or if you have trouble viewing the photos.

Day bed Frame-Full or Queen Size

Hello:

A friend of mine is looking for the frame of a full or queen size Day bed. If anyone have one to give away or selling at a reasonable price, please let me know.

Thank you,

2 Sweet cats in love need new home/homes immediately REVISED with contact info


PLEASE contact phoebe at phebenyc@gmail.com or 347-886-3742 for questions and info


These two sweet boys need a new home due to their person's serious health issues.

 

Gyoza and Howdy are both about two years old. They are both boys and have been fixed. Howdy is in great health and has good energy.  Gyoza is a Persian with a smush face and a sweet disposition. Like most Persians, his coat is fairly high-maintenance-- his gorgeous long hair should be brushed several times a week and he needs to go to the groomer about once every two months.  He has a mild and benign species-specific eye condition that causes slight "goopy eye"--essentially "sleep" which can be cleaned off his face at least twice a day and only takes a couple seconds.  Gyoza and Howdy's person is more than happy to treat both of them to a trip to the groomer's before going to their new homes.

 

Unfortunately, Gyoza has a more complicated health situation. Internally healthy, Gyoza unfortunately has a fractured knee cap that has been in a cast for about eight weeks but now the cast is off and he needs surgery badly. Gyoza's new person would need to be able to invest in his care, but we have several vets who will provide low-cost care if you'd be willing to give these sweet and loving boys a forever home.

 

The thing with both of them is that they are truly exceptional cats. They are uncannily charming and loving. Howdy is a rescue cat and he just radiates gratitude at being saved. He is SO full of love. And he weirdly loves water, which is hilarious. Gyoza has a funny and trusting nature and will love you up! and they truly love each other.

 

For the sake of finding them new homes, I would be willing to split them up, but they would both prefer not to be only cats in their new homes.

Reliable, responsible tenant seeks light-filled 1+ BR home with outdoor space

Hi neighbors:

I live in the neighborhood now, and I can't imagine leaving, but my current space leaves a little to be desired.  I'm looking for a new home, hopefully in the bounds of Ditmas Park or Kensington, ideally within 2 blocks of Cortelyou Road, between Ocean Parkway and East 18th St.

My dream situation includes lots of light throughout the apartment, a great cross-breeze, 1 BR, plus a little extra room for an office or guest bed, a truly functional kitchen (perhaps even a dishwasher!), laundry in the building, and somewhere to store my bike.  And, most of all some kind of access to outdoor space: a yard, a stoop, a porch, a balcony, or a roof all fit the bill!

I am in my mid-30s, super responsible, have a full time professional job.  I'm a reliable tenant, and generally a good neighbor.  I have two sweet cats who come with the deal.

Please email me (amytmorris [at] gmail [dot] com) with any ideas, or spaces that are seeking tenants.  My absolute upper limit for rent is $1600, and I'd really like to pay more like $1400/month.

Thanks,
Amy
