505 Court Street Lofts, Redux
Don't know if this has made the rounds yet, but as I was walking down Court Street this morning, I noticed a sign in front of the old candy factory lofts for a Court Street Lofts website. Lots of big real estate phrases in here: "Carroll Gardens offers a rare sense of caring and community," "a private landscaped garden entertains leisurely strolls and quiet meditation," "classic kitchens balance the timeless elegance of rich granite countertops with the modern style [blah, blah, blah]," and my personal favorite "master bathrooms are sources of daily renewal and restoration" (What does this mean exactly? Do I want to know?) It ends with "beyond your Carroll Gardens enclave, you'll be surrounded by an environment of quality and convenience." There's probably a few other things you'll be surrounded by once you step out of that private enclave of yours as well ;) Who knew that living on 9th Street could be such a quaint experience!!! You might remember a past post of mine about the joys of living oh-so-close to the BQE. Curbed, of course, has weighed in on this building as well.
Note to God: Whatever you do, do *not* reincarnate me as a copywriter for real estate websites.

You were very nice by writing this, but if you want to know this building is not in shape, also the owners are not fixing the building, much less the apartments, they are just patching up things with not permits whatsoever, and worst of all the building is infected with rats, ants, there is no heat in the bathrooms, not central ac or heat not either a thermostate, the boiler is broken and they are waiting for the buyers to fix it after they give the apartments, in resume A TOTAL MESS, good luck to the buyers. I forgat, in the bathroom once in a while you may receive your neighbors water trough the toilet or the bathtub along with all the defecation and urine
