By on January 10, 2019 5:39 pm in 11201, Brooklyn Heights, Celebrity Residents, Real Estate

The Real Deal and WSJ report A-Listers Emily Blunt (“Mary Poppins Returns”) and John Krasinski (The Office) have purchased adjacent apartments at The Standish for a cool $11M. Sources close to the deal say once combined the renovated apartment will take up an entire floor of the building.

The power couple, who starred together in the horror-suspense flick, “A Quiet Place” directed by Krasinski,  joins Matt Damon and family at the famed building on 171 Columbia Heights. Damon’s penthouse purchase for $16.6 broke Brooklyn sales records.

    Who gives a crap.

    You are a fountain of positivity!

    Herman is a troll; best ignored. I’m guilty of having tried to engage him in a reasonable discussion, but all he does is hurl insults.

    Thanks for the background…

    That said, who does give a crap?

  • Herman on Henry

    Not a troll. You just don’t like or agree with what I say. But I’m right. Who cares?

  • Herman on Henry

    You never engaged me before. Insults probably deserving anyway.

  • http://selfabsorbedboomer.blogspot.com/ Claude Scales

    I do.

  • http://selfabsorbedboomer.blogspot.com/ Claude Scales

    I did. Why do you think the insults are deserving?

  • Herman on Henry

    You’re the only one. Go read the gossip pages. Is that an insult?

  • Herman on Henry

    Thanks for admitting you deserved the insults. See how I turned a stupid topic into a post with a little more traffic than it would normally get. You should be thanking me.

  • KXrVrii1

    Claude, you have a great blog, so I apologize now for my comment that was meant in jest but has been further co-opted by the troll who has now further confirmed they are a troll!

  • Herman on Henry

    Apologize for what? You agree with me that this is a stupid post and nobody generally cares if celebrities move into the neighborhood. My stupid posts liven up a generally mundane neighborhood website.

    Not so quiet with the bqe in their bedroom

    I’m sure renovation brought double-glazed, i.e. mostly soundproof, windows. The helicopters are sure to be noisier.

    You must lead a very sad life.

    The BHA is doing a great job advocating for a better BQE plan. But perhaps they will find a way to engage the celebs in Brooklyn Heights and Cobble Hill to help amplify the cause?

    Fingers crossed. We need a Cuomo L train type intervention before these DoT dolts destroy our neighborhood

  • Herman on Henry

    The life I lead is none of your business. Stool face.

    Whatever you say sheriff…

  • TeddyNYC

    I wonder if they were aware of the BQE situation before they made their purchases? Probably not something a broker would be inclined to disclose.

    Ditto

    Perhaps they have a traffic fetish..
