Another Condo Planned for Brooklyn’s Fourth Avenue [The Real Deal]
Sick Owner of 105 Greene Defrauded by Con Man [ABC News]
I am a neighbor of Dr. Mitchell. Is there anyone out there that can offer some actual advice or is this donedeal completely unreversible.
There are numerous inaccuracies in the article (for instance, that the Novo is averaging $600 PSF, pure BS, the numbers are there for all to see on Corcoran’s website, Novo and the Crest are averaging $700+PSF). Those who believe every word printed in The Real Deal, never get to know the real deal!
Sam Pearl purchased the SRO building in Greenpoint with the intent of rehabbing the building and turning a profit and is actively doing so, so put on your thinking caps, having druggies and prostitutes on your property is not something that generates revenue for the landlord, au contraire, it ruins his margins for profit, so it might make for an interesting article to smear the developer before he has a chance to prove jack-shit, but that doesn’t mean much in reality, bottom line, don’t believe everything you read.
Stay tuned…
re: wburg lot — they will need a lot more parking spaces because despite what the developer says about it being unlikely for the tenants of the affordable housing complex to have cars, people who are able to get themsevles declared officially “poor” are much more likely to clog up our streets with fancy new cars — look at all the money they save in rent! I can’t tell you how many brand-spankin-new Lexuses and chromed-out SUVs I see blasting reggaeton on the streets of Bushwick.
Anon 3:44 PM,
I agree that Juniors’ food is gross. So, let them eat (Cheese)cake!
RE: Sick owner of 105 Greene Con Man
I am burning a black candle with that lowlifes picture under it as soon as I log off! I hope he chokes on his spit, his tongue swells to the size of a football, he gets boils in his armpits, his skin and scalp get scabies and his dick falls off in his nasty shitty drawers. And then he drops dead!
Okay, I see the 4th Ave story and see he can build something like 65k sq ft as of right. But the I freak out because I am wondering if the article from last week was right about the Albee Sq. mall morphing in to a lot of things, including 950k sq ft of buildable residential space. How is this even possible? How many human beings will be living there? And where will they all go to parks and schools? The Oro can’t even sell their units, why would somebody build like 1m sq feet of residential that close to Flatbush? Juniors’ food is gross. That can’t be it.

What a character, he borrows against the house. Incase he gets caught he already has the $ in his pocket. It’s easier to hide cash. also makes for a nice war chest against a legal battle.
No good can come from the pure evil and dishonest acquisition of Dr. Mitchell’s home…
Italian horns in his diection… may he be haunted every sleepless night in Dr, Mitchell’s stolen home… it will never be his home.
Re the doctor being defrauded of her brownstone, that is absolutely sickening. That lowlife sleezebag has a black cloud of bad karma over him and even if he sells the place the evil dead will hang over the place — like being haunted. He is also my neighbor now or should I say a pariah who is in the neighborhood.
