Remember The Silhouette, the Coggan+Crawford-designed building at 272 21st Street in Greenwood Heights? As the numerous links below show, we’ve been breathlessly charting its course since the four-unit project launched in the spring of 2010. Despite its attractive modern design and LEED certification, it took a little time for the listings to get traction. But after about six months on the market, the first couple of units were snapped up and by March of this year there was just one left. Now we know what happened with that last one: The third-floor unit was bought by a young couple upsizing from a small one-bedroom in Park Slope. As this week’s The Hunt column in The Times informs us, the software designer and accountant ultimately decided it was worth going a little further south than originally planned to get more bang for their buck. They closed at the end of March on the 1,300-square-foot pad for $780,000 (down from the asking price of $795,000).
