Former Bush Appointee Buys in Cobble Hill for $1.7 Million

Don't tell the crunchy neighbors in baby-laden Cobble Hill, but there's a Republican moving into the neighborhood. According to public records filed yesterday evening, Reuben Jeffery III, the former Under Secretary of State for Economic, Business and Agricultural Affairs, appointed by George W. Bush, and his wife Robin have purchased a unit in a pre-war co-op at 174 Pacific Street. Records also listed their daughter, Jocelyn — for whom we can only assume the purchase is made (Mamma and Papa Reuben bought a full-floor pad just last year at 620 Park Avenue for $9.16 million). The 2BR/2BA apartment, which is conveniently located near Trader Joe's, was purchased for $1.7 million through a listing held by Brown Harris Stevens.
