Horrible about the Quincy Street brownstones. I can’t imagine what it would be like to see your ceiling rise up and then fall down again. It is fortunate that no one was killed. I hope repairs are done soon, and people can go home and rebuild their lives.
No building could withstand a fierce, directed and concentrated wind like that. Not a condo or a brownstone.
maggie may?
“Brownstones built for gravity, not uplift”
That seems to describe your market forecasting, too, bho.
Brownstones built for gravity, not uplift, benson.
DIBS – You know how that old Rod Stewart song goes.

But it’s coming.
***Bid half off peak comps***
After almost two years of this broken-record prediction you’d think you’d smarten up.
Those NY #’s compared pretty well to what I expected (NY still eating off of stimulii, quantitative easing, and Wall St profit squeezing) but not so well for what I had hoped. But it’s coming. Case-Thrilla of Manilla.

Trust me, benson, had your building been in the direct path you too would be weeping and gnashing your teeth.
BHO, you better get off your asshat and start looking for a brownstone lest you remain forever homeless.
What?!?!?!!?
You mean those “built for the ages” brownstones were damaged by the storm?
How did my crappy steel-framed condo escape its wrath?
