Sale at 330 Spring Street #8A

He also states it is the last project of Philip Johnson. Is Mr. Johnson dead? Or did the broker mean latest project?

Philip Johnson died a few years ago.

not that it really matters, but i thought this one was the last. i recall some sick humor about the building listing on SE some time ago.

The "investment opportunity" goes something like this. The monthly carry on this place at the ask is over $15K per month. The "opportunity" is that you can buy it and lose a few thousand per month against the (likely) rent for 2 years, and then you can sell it at a loss or re-rent for even less.

Isn't this the building acrosss the street from the planned sanitation truck station?

Anyway of course it an investment opportunity. You take a 5/1 ARM that will cost you like 5/6K a month. THen flip it in 4 years and make 20% as well. oh wait, that was 2004.

Yo truthy. I miss the bubble. My .0025% on Chking is so so boring compared to the 100% returns the entirety of nyc was getting from being housesitters.

I miss it too Dubya, the worst part is I feel bad for some brokers.
You know, real estate was that occupation so many could fall on or jump on when they just couldn't succeed in their original profession.
What occupation will these brokers now fall on now?

I hear cupcakes are hot.

Gee, I don't Dub, that requires more than just talking, you gotta do something,.... like baking and stuff.

what is up with my keyboard, missing words on many posts

"Gee I don't know Dub"
