For Sale By Owner in Greenpoint: Home Office Included
This is 62 Box Street. It is what is known in the trade as a FSBO or Fizzbow, if you will. The images come from our Greenpoint Correspondent, the ever-observant (and always with-camera) Miss Heather. It includes a very nice home office, which is in the photo below, as well as a big bowl on the steps that we are led to believe is (a). being used for certain bodily functions and (b). not a very pleasant thing to behold. It is in the same block as 48 Box Street, which despite a Stop Work Order is the beneficiary of Immaculate Construction. But we digress. This post is about a Quality of Life Eyesore as opposed to a Quality of Life Construction Problem.

So we're supposed to giggle at the conditions of the buildings in poor immigrant neighborhoods like this while simultaneously railing against efforts to improve them?
What you're see here is "improvement" at work; a massive sell-off of property by homeowners who can no longer afford the property taxes.
No worries, I'm sure this house will get a taker. He/or she will tear it down and throw up some "luxury" POS that will be out of the financial reach of the "poor immigrants" who live here. Or USED to live here.
In the meantime, it would be nice if the city would tell the current owner of this property to clean it up.
