We’re not the only ones who’ve given this building a hard time. Others in the neighborhood lamented the clunky addition affixed to the back of this Carroll Gardens brownstone, and now Pardon Me For Asking has noted that the place is still up for grabs, having languished on the market since January ’07. Unit 2 got a $60,000 chop to $1.4 million six months ago, but that’s not enough, apparently. The whole building went on sale in May for nearly $3 million, and, despite changing brokers a few times, the “hunchback” as PMFA calls it, remains available.

  1. Austin Nagle was also going to do the same this to 120 3rd Pl., but that building was put on the market last month (or so). Let’s hope he just gets out of the neighborhood so he can focus on selling his overpriced furniture.

  2. i heard a rumor that the tenant is not even paying rent… it’s a barter deal for physical therapy for nagle since hes so stressed out from all his deals turning sour, and the renter is a physical therapist from manhattan..only a rumor..

  3. a profile from the nydaily news of the fop who made this abortion possible…what a buffoon..
    Austin Nagel, 25, compliments two high-design furniture stores in Chelsea with boutique residential developments in Cobble Hill and Carroll Gardens in Brooklyn. Nagel’s Natrona Furniture stores, on W. 20th St. off Sixth Ave., sell sleek Italian and Brazilian brand furniture at affordable prices. His developments have apartments ranging in price from $850,000 to $1.3 million.

    “I have no desire to be told what to do,” says Nagel, who left his native Wyoming at 16 to pay his way through school in Paris. “It’s not so much about money as it is doing exactly what I want.”

  4. the developer, austin nagle made a series of bad bets in the neighborhood… i guess he thought that he could flip garbage like this…surprise ( i also notice that he deleted his embarrassingly self serving profile from wikipedia…lol)

  5. THL, LOL! I don’t want to see anybody go broke, but let this be a lesson to developers who want to throw up any POS and expect to have money thrown at them.

    I wouldn’t live in this place for free.
