Björk Moving to Brooklyn Heights

We first caught wind of this rumor last week and have finally gotten enough confirmation that we feel comfortable posting it: Avant-garde pop star Bjork and artist husband Matthew Barney are in contract on a rather phat pad in Brooklyn Heights. In the name of privacy, that’s all we’re gonna say and ask that commenters refrain from posting the address if they know it. Stick to welcoming two more world-class artists to Brooklyn.
Reminds me of a thread on Bklyn Hts Blog – will Bjork become our new Norman Mailer?
Pop Quiz:
Q: What is Björk’s last name?
A: Guðmundsdóttir
No wonder she goes by “Bjork.” Yikes.
PS Maybe Tango will start stocking more feathered items with her in the nabe.
Looking at the UCC filing on ACRIS, while it is indeed very likely that Bjork and Matthew Barney are moving to the nabe, it’s not conclusive proof of such. My lender filed a UCC prior to my closing on my coop unit. It’s not an uncommon practice. The transfer tax form has not been filed yet, which would be more definitive proof of a purchase. If they are merely in contract for the unit, the Board could subsequently decide not to allow them into the building, thus dissolving the contract. The Board might say, “Eh, this Bjork is too much of a rabble-rouser, beating on people at airports. We don’t want her kind in our building.” It ain’t over till the fat lady sings, or in this case, the icelandic pixie sings her swan song in her swan dress.
Bjork???!!! Wait, so it’s not Morrissey?
this is the same bjork that had a bomb sent to her house and a crazy stalker kill himself online over her. this reporter hounded her for days and GRABBED HER KID the day previously. she had enough. learn all the facts before you people start guessing at what you would do in this situation.
frankly this video made me like her even more.
on a side note it not so great that all these freaky people now know where she lives thanks to you guys.
Now I feel bad for posting that thing about the Hudson Valley. I think Bjork and Matthew Barney are cool. I’ve seen them at parties and plays. I hope they have a wonderful time in their new house.
Mssr. Lafever, you’ll be happy to know that I’ve got a beautiful mahogany tea caddy so that riff raff like her doesn’t steal the tea.
Bxgirl…tea with Katie? How nice 🙂 Does she let Suri have unlimited icepops? Ha!
She’s feisty, that’s for sure. We don’t mind feisty in BH as long as no antique china or furniture is broken.
