Seedy Greenpoint Hotel Changes Hands

The legendarily shabby Greenpoint Hotel recently sold, marking the third time in the past decade that the flophouse has had new owners. A company based in the Bronx bought the property and some adjoining parcels for $3.5 million. An article a few years ago in the Times talked about the hotel's history, noting that "the hallways stink of marijuana and urine; the bathrooms - one per floor - are caked in dirt, and hot water is rare." NY Shitty, which has done a bunch of reporting on the establishment, took note of a fire in the building this August. GMAP
