Um, no. No one’s going to pay $1,200,000 for this run-down four-story brick house at 139 Clifton Place in Bed Stuy (not, as the listing says, Clinton Hill). The house looks in poor shape from the outside, and the listing makes no mention of any salvageable architectural details on the interior, saying only that the house is a “blank canvas.” Given that the seller paid $675,000 less than a year ago, you gotta wonder what in the world she’s thinking!

  1. Really it’s all a sham?? Shocking!

    Uh Gary, don’t you think that’s exactly what I meant when I called you a fraud?

    So, if you have such disdain for brownstone owners why are you hanging out with them all the time? Oh right, I already covered that I mentioned that you were covetous.

    Come on, anyone with money doesn’t try so hard to prove it.

  2. Well, the mention of the “caucasian persuasion” is totally gratuitous and unneccessary, gary cooper. It has no relevance to the house, the neighborhood, or the topic at hand.

    And please, don’t credit Yale with your elitest attitudes. It is one of the most liberal and enlightened universities in the country. They have problems finding a room small enough for the Young Republicans on campus. Perhaps you and your like minded buddies spent your formative years there huddled in the basement of Skull and Bones, plotting the take over of the world, but out here in the real world, we are not impressed.

  3. Townhouse lady:
    cool your jets hon.
    there is no Gary Cooper.
    It’s just a handle.
    I’m doing this to get a rise out of you
    complacent brownstone-owning bourgeoisie
    who think you are God’s gift to new York, when
    actually. by and large, you are self-rightous, self-absorbed, hypocritical, self-interested, boring, people.
    there is no Gary Cooper
    He is all in your mind.
    cheerio

  4. “Everyone I knew at Yale was just like me.”

    Bush is from there also. I say we close down the school.

    Don’t play the little innocent with me, dear. You know perfectly well why you tossed in that little bit of info. If anyone wants further proof I suggest they visit you on the HOTD of last Friday in Crown Heights. Montrose Morris not only kicked your butt, he kicked it really well.

    I tip my hat to you, TownHouseLady.

  5. Lurker,
    Really?
    Everyone I knew at Yale was just like me.
    Why am I racist? because I use the word “caucasian”?
    – not even in caps?
    Were these houses built by, or for, someone else?
    Maybe you have a beef with American history?

  6. Gary Cooper,

    Your brazen attempt to bait and anger the posters here with the mention of race is as pathetic as your previous endeavors to assert your family’s wealth and social standing.

    It’s blatantly apparent that all you really are is a covetous fraud.

  7. Ah- I can see it all now. Big Headlines!: gary cooper, knee jerk racist. Ya know, for someone who claims to have gone to Yale you’re sure are an embarrassment. (Oh! FYI- I am of the Caucasian persuasion).
