green-baltic-0110.jpgIt ain’t easy being green. When we last heard from the Green Giant of Baltic Street back in September, the newly constructed commercial space was still sitting empty. Yesterday Lost City checked in with the wallflower and, sure enough, it’s still available. The blog takes issue with some of the marketing verbiage though. Rather than calling it “the most architecturally alluring storefront in Cobble Hill,” as the listing from Vespa Reality does, the blog suggests a rewrite: “I’ll give them this: It’s the most architecturally singular storefront in the neighborhood.” The blog also offers up a couple of more reasons why the space hasn’t found a taker yet: “It must be a bitch to heat in the winter and probably becomes a sauna in the summer. Not to mention the window-washing bills.”

  1. “It’s hilarious. DH- when you and 11217 tied t he knot, let me design the invitations. Rob- I need a picture of you and your dog ;-)”

    only if Wine Lover can be my best man. 😉

  2. Actually, *rob*, randy started in on you before 11217. ^^^^

    I feel sorta bad for the Vespa Properties brokers. They’re probably all excited to see this thread with nearly 100 posts and counting, thinking what great publicity it is for them to finally rent the green building, probably expecting comments brimming with suggestions for the space, perhaps interested parties, and then *THWACK*!!!
