Slopers are falling all over themselves trying to figure out how Jennifer Connelly could ditch that gorgeous mansion.
Just check out the Brownstoner comments.
It calls into question everything Slopers hold dear. That house on the corner of Carroll Street is a Slope Dream House.
It is inconceivable to most Slopers that someone could walk away from what many Slopers lust for: a historic, 5,200 square feet mansion crammed with architectural details facing a beloved Park.
"I love that house," Diaper Diva told me. "One thing you have to say is they kept up the integrity of it. They kept the original details and decorated with a light touch. I like the mix of the mid-century with the Victorian."
Perhaps Connelly/Bettany want a more anonymous life away from the glare of envious Park Slopers. Or maybe it’s not that at all. Maybe they got tired of the multi-floor living. Or they needed more privacy or security.
Maybe Connelly, a lifelong Park Sloper, wants to try life in Manhattan.
Moving to Tribeca? That’s a real blow to Slopers who believe that their neighborhood is heaven on earth.
She actually is not a lifelong Park Sloper. She grew up in Brooklyn Heights and lived in a one bedroom apartment in the West Village for years before moving back to Brooklyn. However I also cannot understand how they’d leave. I’m guessing it’s too much for them to maintain, they’re probably not home alot.
