Like Melrose Place, Only in Brooklyn

With summer fading, The Times focuses on apartment buildings in the city where residents like to party together. The poster child for the trend: 475 Sterling Place, the 45-unit newish condo building “with a pronounced social vibe” in Prospect Heights. Also on the list: The Novo in Park Slope.

“How can they live with themselves, living in such a building?”
Its easy: living inside the building and looking out, one cannot see it.
similar situation in my building, mostly amongst the people who are new to NYC and looking for friends. I prefer not socializing with people in my building.

our condo building is a big love fest and same with parents from kids school. we spent last thanksgiving and christmas with neighbors that are also parents at the school too. there are always tons of kids running around in front of the building, and the parents all hang out and socialize. lots of barbecues and parties too.
that actually sounds awful.
*rob*
the best neighors are the ones you never see!!

Gee, I can’t understand how the folks in the Novo can be making merry together, knowing the scorn that was heaped on their building by the frownstoners. How can they live with themselves, living in such a building?
