Shell of Its Former Self, 925 Fulton Street For Sale
Poor 925 Fulton Street. This beautiful four-story building between Clinton and Waverly has been neglected for years, but is now getting another shot at life. After being in the same hands for more than three decades, the four-unit property traded back in 2005 for $200,000 and then again in 2007 for $953,000. According to the…
Poor 925 Fulton Street. This beautiful four-story building between Clinton and Waverly has been neglected for years, but is now getting another shot at life. After being in the same hands for more than three decades, the four-unit property traded back in 2005 for $200,000 and then again in 2007 for $953,000. According to the sign on the door, it’s for sale again. We tried calling the number (917-755-5461) but were unable to reach a human being. Does anyone know what the asking price is? How great would it be if someone would fix this place up. GMAP P*Shark
C-hiller. I trust you were not referring to me in your post. I don’t think I am in denial about the difficult state of the real estate market right now and I sure as hell think I give more respect and concern to the What than he/she/they give back to me or anyone else on here.
That being said, I also enjoy the term Asshat.
Cobblehiller, you must be joking. The what is a doom-and-gloom merchant who NEVER offers any constructive suggestions, excels in hating, and I mean hating in the visceral and mean real sense of the word, and makes so many predictions that like the broken clock, he’s right twice per day.
HEY…The last line of my comment was deleted…I said…What: please don’t ever stop using asshat! G’damn, it makes me laugh everytime!
OY. What has good points. Take it or leave it, but the hating is just wrong. I, for one, see many of the points he makes. There is justifiable anger and this is a good venue to speak it in. The denial is pretty thick on this blog sometimes.
What, I hear you over here on my hill.
That’s o.k. Biff, I figured as much.
I am not on the hate the What bandwagon by any means. I am trying to engage with you on this subject because I live right by there and hope that this stretch of Fulton becomes a viable commercial strip. And yes, some of the things you have been harping about (banking crisis, home prices falling) have come to pass but it really didn’t take a genius to figure out we were in for some hard times. The problem I have is with the glee you seem to take in these things. I don’t get what your endgame is with this. If it is to be supportive of the lower income residents of Brownstone Brooklyn (pure conjecture on my part as you have never stated your goals with any clarity) then the predicted economic downturn will hurt them more than the Asshats you claim to hate. And believe me I have read far more of what you have written than most reasonable people would. So if you have a point, if there is some other purpose or goal to your hateful rants than just shitting on everybody please educate me. I would love to think you were something more than an antisocial bomb-thrower but you don’t give me many reasons to think otherwise.
Bxgirl–thanks.
what, that is absolute hogwash. For a while there, Brownstoner posted so much on Clinton Hill regarding real estate and restaurants, that people complained he didn’t post about anything else. Type in the name of any of the newer restaurants or businesses on Fulton Street and there is a post on them, often years ago before you even started posting here (do a search for Kush, Brown Betty, Olivino, Greene Planet, Bodegas, Au Tour Du Monde). I don’t understand your agenda sometimes.
Also, I hope you now understand how a BID is funded – especially since the quote you provided at 12.08pm explicitly explains that the property owners, not the city, fund the BID. Here’s another link that explains it again, if you still don’t get it.

Off topic, but is English your first language. If not, then I’d be willing to cut you some slack.
TownhouseLady, it seems fair to say The What decided to ignore your advice. 🙂
exlege- of course not. It was your evil twin.
