Real estate wonderland, Part 2
Atlantic Yards Report
Crazy, the best affordable housing opportunities currently being advertised in the footprint of Atlantic Yards are in... Georgia, as in the state, not the country in the Caucasus region of Eurasia:
At the corner of Atlantic and Flatbush avenues, at the tip of the Atlantic Yards footprint, a real estate entrepreneur has begun to tout affordable housing... in Atlanta.
The phone number leads to this real estate agency.
The photo at right was taken from the Flatbush Avenue side of the fence, with the Newswalk condos, not part of the AY footprint, in the distance. (Newswalk, of course, would be dwarfed by the project.)
And speaking about crazy, yesterday, Norman Oder stumbled down the Williamsburg real estate rabbit hole at the Conflux festival. The Riviera Real Estate Agency (slogan, "Live here today before tomorrow is yesterday") might not be as ironic as we may think.
