In a rather glowing profile of The Developers Group today, The Daily News cites one sales strategy of its founder, Elan Padeh: He asks prospective Brooklyn buyers which neighborhoods they like in Manhattan, and then directs them towards their Brooklyn equivalents. Here’s how he lines them up:
Park Slope = Upper West Side
Williamsburg = East Village + Tribeca
Fort Greene = West Village
Dumbo = Soho
Carroll Gardens = Nolita
Pretty accurate, we’d say. What are some others?

Do you still have to be a certified artist to buy in SoHo?
Sunset Park = Spanish Harlem
people in those soho lofts SERIOUSLY need to get window shades, especially when they live across the street from an office building. there is this old lady who is always on the toilet. kid you not. the whole building laughs at her. we can see right into her bathroom! and there is this creepy man who is always changing his underwear in this partitioned area of a loft that looks like a dance studio.

DUMBO = SoHo (in some poor hipsters’ minds)
East New York = Beatdown
As for DUMBO = Soho, they must be referring solely to the housing stock (lofty apartments) since the streets of DUMBO resemble a ghost town compared to Soho’s sheer density.
Millbasin = Any “Trump” Building
