Scarano Faces Two Lawsuits
Looks like Scarano’s got just as many frenemies in Manhattan as he does on this side of the river.

Looks like Scarano’s got just as many frenemies in Manhattan as he does on this side of the river. The development company Blesso Properties is suing Scarano for $4 million in damages, claiming they were “harmed by the architect’s aggressive design practices,” reports The Real Deal; architectural malpractice, breach of contract and negligence are among their complaints. Scarano contends they’re just lashing back at his own suit against them, trying to get the $208,099 he says Blesso still owes him. “Scarano abused his self-certification privileges and filed plans although he ‘knew that his work would not and did not comply with the DOB standards,'” they retort. The projects they’re fighting over, by the way, are sold out.
Developer Battles Scarano in Court [The Real Deal]
And what I love even more is, if this was 1-2 years ago, a article like this on brownstoner would have had 60+ posts…seems Bobby has fallen out of fashion.
Or is it the “who cares factor?”
There, now we have 8 posts.
I see Robert Scarano walking around Brooklyn DOB a couple of times a week, and every time I see him I can’t help but smirk. He used to come on Brownstoner to defend himself and sent a number of people threatening emails for posting their opinions of him. Even after all of the newspaper articles and actions by the city, he’s still trying to attribute blame on other people for the tarnish that has befallen his reputation.
itsagas,
Shouldn’t that be “pigeons?”
Live by the mezzanine, die by the mezzanine.
They obviously deserve each other.
Ring…Ring…
“Hello Pot? It’s the Kettle calling.”
A classic “Casablanca” moment. Developers are just shocked that Scarano was up to dastardly doings in his business practices. Shocked.
What hypocricy.
Chickens coming home to roost.
These developers hired Scarano almost exclusively based on his ability to squeeze more square footage past DOB, and then they sue him. I’m not buying it.
