1232-Dean-Street-1208.jpg
This four-story house at 1232 Dean Street in Crown Heights just hit the market and, like so many houses in the area, has some killer architectural details. (In this case, it’s the wood paneling and built-ins that really impress.) Hopefully for the seller, this place will attract more interest than the next-door neighbor at 1230 Dean Street, which we featured a year ago and is still on the market for $1,250,000. While we suspect there will be plenty of people who dig the house, we suspect that the price tag of $999,000 for a house in this neighborhood may be a tough sell in this economic environment.

  1. What, you are advocating that black people should rob, mug, and murder each other and get ripped off by store owners so that no white person wants to move into a black neighborhood. Perhaps you’re a white racist.

    Also, plenty of people of color involved in the MAB at all levels.

  2. “What, I’m appalled by your attack on Montrose.”

    But no is “appalled” when someone attacks me. Look Mopar you are being disingenuous, save that crap for someone else. No one bothered to read my post, just a bunch of reactionary nonsense from the idiot camp. At this point I’m not trying to run for office and this is not the time to be soft. The Asshats brought into the idea of this Mutant Asset Bubble, think they can move into a neighborhood and magically change overnight with “We are here to help you” nonsense. Just like the Pilgrims telling the Indians “We hare her to be your friends”, see how that turned out!

    I’m so sorry that I’m not onboard with “We are the world” BS that spews forth from Montrose Morris mouth.

    The Fight Against Gentrification in Downtown Brooklyn

    Was posted in Brownstoner and guess what? To big up the hits of Covert Race/Warfare

    http://bstoner.wpengine.com/brownstoner/archives/2008/11/there_is_somepl.php

    Plenty of times Brownstoner injects Covert Race/Class warfare in every thing Marauding Teenagers, Black Homeless Women takes dump in the street, Oh this a Drug Dealer and Storefronts operation as Drug lookouts.

    Last example, The BID thing!! Did Brownstoner take his Punk Ass on Fulton St and ask why is everyone against BID??? NO!!! WHY???? Because he wanted to promote more of the BS on this Blog!!

    Look if you don’t agree with me then don’t reply to my posts, Oh BTW Ya’ll can suck me off!!!

    Someday this war is gonna end….

  3. What, Bed Stuy and Clinton Hill are full of black homeowners. Gentrification is not displacing them.

    Montrose, Bed Stuy seems to be a happy exception to the whites-services rule. It has significant numbers of very nice businesses, all black owned. I presume they were not opened for the benefit of whites.

  4. Well, I missed this whole change in direction. What, I’m appalled by your attack on Montrose.

    There are more constructive ways to fight the worst aspects of gentrification than returning to the old days of apartheid, violence, and no services. That kind of neighborhood abandonment and disinvestment was not the norm, it was the product of racism.

  5. Today was very nice. I see the primates are banging their chest calling “Victory” over The What but, there is one thing missing…

    The Mutant Asset Bubble is still imploding! You are losing your jobs by the boatload! Mortgage Lending has dried up. Investment Banking is dead. Appreciation is Asset prices has crashed. Christmas buying season is a disaster. NY Times had to Mortgage their building to stave off the inevitable. The Chicago Tribune filed Bankruptcy yesterday and will have to sell some it’s prized assets (Chicago Cubs).

    Let me show how really bad things are! People are accepting negative rates from US Treasuries because the faith in you economic system is gone.

    Treasury Bills Trade at Negative Rates as Haven Demand Surges

    http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=a9p7NHTIZswU&refer=home

    Dec. 9 (Bloomberg) — Treasuries rose, pushing rates on the three-month bill negative for the first time, as investors gravitate toward the safety of U.S. government debt amid the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression.

    The Treasury sold $27 billion of three-month bills yesterday at a discount rate of 0.005 percent, the lowest since it starting auctioning the securities in 1929. The U.S. also sold $30 billion of four-week bills today at zero percent for the first time since it began selling the debt in 2001.

    You ever notice when someone is talking about the economy they always end the sentence with “since the Great Depression”……

    Enjoy yourself, make merry and have fun! 2009 is here. I will call it “Year of The What”
