These two beauties come to us from Crown Heights and Canarsie, respectively. It almost looks like they could have been designed by the same person. Love those doors and peaked roofs! Condos in Crown Heights [Craigslist] 1280 E 100th St [Craigslist]

yeah, guess I just blocked third and bond out of my mind ’cause the guy’s doing such a great job compared to the schlock/fedders box builders.
pfa, I thought that is what the Inside Third and Bond feature here was for. It’s the ongoing saga of a developer’s work to bring a project to fruition. Haven’t you seen it?
can’t we have a developer/builder come on this site, ever? It would be wonderful to be able to engage in a thoughtful discussion with them about things like architectural considerations, FAR calculations, building costs, profitability estimates, community standards, landmarking, dealing with city and state agencies, their personal “vision”… isn’t there anybody willing to talk???
er- that’s Lansbury, sweetie.
Montrose, that’s even better. You’ll sell a million magazines after starting speculation of a Brad Pitt-Angelina Jolie-Angela Landsbury love triangle!
Benson, I look forward to meeting you, too.
Thanks, Biff, but I don’t think they’d hire me. I wrote “Angela” instead of Angelina. What kind of celebrity hound does that?
What is a “knot hat??”
These building do look horrible, but unfortunately this is the only investment available for people that can’t afford a $1 million brownstone in a decent neighborhood. As horrible as it may look, it’s still new construction and produces rental income. Why spend all your money on a new apartment when you can buy an entire building???????
Chaka, great post. Seriously, not making fun, what did she like about it?
