building at 650 Sixth Avenue

i'm actually going to check out the place the 3 bedroom layout seems really nice and decently priced

why are the apts in this building coming in pairs?

is this a buy one get one free deal or something? very creative.

they don't list the taxes, but it looks to be a bit north of $1/SF, see below listing:

wow those pictures make it look crap

I like the "100% financing allowed"

SHVO - try again - that first try was a poor attempt.

go buy a good camera and put some color in that public toilet of an apartment

what is the deal with this building? 67 apartments and counting streeteasy's data shows a grand total of 16 have closed since sales began in May '07. How is this developer not in foreclosure?

For a second, I thought this was the bulding that the Iranian governmwnt secretly owned. But that building is 650 Fifth Avenue.

Now is the time to buy at 650 Sixth Avenue in Chelsea. Buy now at 650 Sixth Avenue in chelsea or be priced out forever. Go to the sales opps rent office and catch that falling knife for sale at 650 Sixth Avenue in Chelsea.

wow they just switched brokers for the second time and didn't drop the crazy prices. does the developer just want this project to fail? then the strategy is working.

Ridiculous! I see the same 3 units lit up every night. Must be verrrrrry quiet in the hallways and lobby of this puppy. They should just cut prices and end the suffering.

the odd thing is the last set of brokers were like "offer anything" "the developer will accept 20 to 25 percent below ask" i don't understand why they think making that public by chopping the prices wouldn't help them.

if the building is of interest to you do some acris homework.
Looks like K lines in the building closings are at an average 1000 per sq ft.

The high asks are left for the wandering euro who missed the spring street stop.

Back in the bubblicious glory days, the condo conversion of Chelsea's very lovely 650 Sixth Avenue was greeted by a Michael Shvo marketing blitz proclaiming "white-box gallery living" and appearances on totally awesome reality shows. But the uber-luxe home-as-art-gallery thing kind of fell out of favor once Wall Street died, and Shvo eventually got ousted for Corcoran. Now there's been another brokerage switch, and the 67-unit 650 Sixth Avenue (~30% sold) is in the able hands of luxury real estate ninja Leonard Steinberg and his merry band. Oops, did we say 650 Sixth Avenue?

We meant 50 West 20th Street, which the building is now going by. Hey, if you're asking $1,400/sqft and up, is a Sixth Avenue address really going to cut it? But the new look goes beyond a simple numbers game. Steinberg tell us, "The white boxes have officially become homes! Now with softer lighting, furniture, life..." Check out the gallery above, showing off this strange "life" concept.

What's the latest here? Any thoughts?

first they try changing the address to 50 west 20th and now they are renaming it "The Cammeyer". I guess that is marketing? Good luck Core. Are they the fourth broker team on this building now?

wow they really did change the name again

any new takes on this building? anybody who bought out there?

anyone living in the building currently who can speak for the quality of the construction? any issues?

Hey, looking into buying into this building perhaps in the next few months.... any new news or thoughts? Is it still averaging 1000/sq ft when sold? Thanks!

At least one of the buildings tenants is problematic to say the least:
