The guy on WNYC, who was black and had grown up in Fort Greene, was talking about how all the resentment he had built up against white gentrifiers melted away in the post-election revelry at the corner of Carlton and Dekalb. He estimated that 3/4 of the crowd was white.

Maybe all the s#!+holes on Fulton Street will be wiped out and we can start with a clean slate.

I wonder if you walked into the sales office with $5,500,000 in cash whether they'd be willing to come down on that penthouse? Methinks yes!

If this were a 20-footer, it would probably be worth $1.9 million, so 20% off that gets you to $1.52 million. Maybe $1.6 is possible, but I doubt the full $1.67.

this is interesting but would be A LOT more interesting if you could get the people doing these projects to reveal the various costs of doing things relative to non-green route.

Dream on. I agree that some of the units look pretty nice, but pricing is loco.

You go girl!

Is this bullish? Depends what you thought of the original asking price.

Man, that's a long sales cycle. I'm surprised they're not waiting longer for closings. What if they can't sell the rest of the units?

i get that this produce is much better and fresher but how does it stack up in terms of price? is a head of lettuce half the price, or what?

Feels like this Prospect Heights designation has been taking f-o-r-e-v-e-r!
