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

Fort Greene = West Village
Dumbo = Soho
Carroll Gardens = Nolita

“Cobble Hill = Carnegie Hill”

Cobble Hill = G*d’s Country!
SnarkSlope: Have I mentioned how much I adore you lately?

Cobble Hill = Carnegie Hill
Bay Ridge = Inwood
Prosopect Park = Central Park
Yes I am bored! I’ve beeb on hold with the city for 30 minutes trying to get my tax rebate check!

SnarkSlope is going full throttle today!!!

Mr. Snark has removed himself from competition for his own award (you see? ethics has its own reward). And I should point out while a classic of snarkism, there is an earlier entry for Greenwood Cemetery: Greenwood Cemetery = dead.
I myself personally feel this earlier rates a 5 meow for its clear statement of the obvious, done in classic Gracie Allen mode. It just missed being categorized as Yogi Berraeasque by virtue of its subtle social commentary.
Atlantic Yards= Sargasso Sea
“Greenwood Cemetery = UES.”
Well, the master himself shows us amateur snarksters how it is done!!!
Excellent, snark. Hand’s down winner of SOTD!!
Greenwood Cemetery = UES.
