Time to Start Getting Real, Downtown!
It’s official: The cast of the 21st season of “The Real World” will live in Downtown Brooklyn’s Belltel Lofts, says the Daily News. And how pumped does Belltell owner David Bistricer sound?

It’s official: The cast of the 21st season of “The Real World” will live in Downtown Brooklyn’s Belltel Lofts, says the Daily News. And how pumped does Belltell owner David Bistricer sound? Palpably. “It is what it is. It’s the ‘Real World,'” says Bistricer. (Isn’t it kinda weird that the day a measure to preserve Starrett City’s affordability is announced, spurned buyer Bistricer is in the news for bringing the height of philistine vulgarity MTV to Brooklyn?) The seven strangers will be living in a $6 million, 6,000-square-foot, two-story penthouse. A Jacuzzi will be imported. Fun facts: The spread will be the smallest in “Real World” history, and filming will not be allowed in Belltel’s common areas. See you at Floyd, guys.

“Undoubtedly, this 21st season of the show, will depict Brooklyn as this paradise for the vapid-minded suburbanite.”
I’d say 1 in 2 people who have moved to Brooklyn in the last 10 years is a “vapid-minded suburbanite”.
Its too late. Damage done.
This SHOULD be the last full season of the Real World. Season 21…all grown up. The perfect way for the show to come full circle would be to have the roommates work as volunteers for Kevin Powell’s congressional campaign. (For those who don’t know) Kevin was an original cast member (Season 1), who is currently running for congress representing Brooklyn. That would be a perfect way to put this series to bed. Furthermore, their participation would not unfairly impact the election (in the form of free advertising) since it won’t air until next summer.

I don’t have a problem with the grout. That is a minor point and like you said easy and cheap to fix.
MTV + stroller nazi moms + cheap & greedy David Bistricer = A summer of misery.
