Condo of the Day: Carroll Gardens Two Bedroom

When we saw this listing, one word leapt to mind: Obfuscate. Dictionary.com provides three definitions:
1. to confuse, bewilder, or stupefy.
2. to make obscure or unclear
3. to darken.
We continue to be astounded at brokers who refuse to provide the most basic information in a listing. In this case, it’s an address. Clearly, this broker is hoping to trade on the Carroll Gardens name, even though (or perhaps because) this particular building lacks any of the charm that is typically associated with the neighborhood. Maybe it’s all beside the point: Based on the photos of the interior, this two-bedroom condo would look like a rip-off if it were in friggin’ Brooklyn Heights. Next please.
