“Of course, its pure marketing. But, that doesn’t mean its not true.”
Yes it does. Think real hard. PUUURRREEE.
Thinking of buying a condo there at today’s asks, at the top of the market, and coming out ahead? Again, think real hard.
No, 2:17. Not absurd. This piece was obviously just PR fluff. Most of us are able to spot those. I absolutely believe celebrities are looking at Brookyln for real estate investments. But this wasn’t believable. It was too vague for one thing, about Hilary Swank. All they’re saying is she might look at the place. She didn’t even officially ask to see the building yet and they’re using her name to sell their condos. Smells of desperation.
there are thousands and thousands of celebrities in new york.
it’s really that hard for you to believe that three of them like brooklyn enough to look at an apartment (and possibly buy one) there.
you’re being absurd.
I’m Hilary Swank and they made me an offer I couldn’t refuse.
Very surprised a real movie star like Hilary Swank participated in this. Usually only D-list wannabes like Tyra Banks, Nick Lachey and Paris Hilton agree to tour places or show up at parties for publicity.
The celebrities are probably paid to “tour” the place. Just like with Nick Lachey & his girlfriend at the Atelier. They did major PR for the Atelier, and most likely got a discount and other perks for buying there. It’s the oldest trick in the book.
The usual hype. One, the “celebrities” never actually buy into these places. Two, who the hell cares?
Welcome to the new day, new year 2008! How many pounds did I gain from the holidays? Don’t wanna know.
Like if you keep sitting down and blogging, you get fat. Much like peepz who hang out in Downtown Brooklyn.
