Through the Looking-Glass, and What Brooklyn Found There
Hard times at Meier Tower: "FACED with anemic sales, the developers have slashed prices by as much as 40 percent. They combined units – there were originally 114 – to boost the percentage sold in order to ease the path to mortgages. But potential buyers have walked away from at least $20 million worth of contracts. And the handful of people who moved in have been left exposed not only to the perils of buying at the peak of the market but also to the stifled laughter of their neighbors following their every move."
It's like the Standard, but slightly more perverse.
I think Varda has the right approach to the current New York real estate market: "She is a sculptor who said she was not worried about declining real estate values because her next condo would be a coffin."
