The much-talked about 580 Carroll has upped the ante: Curbed reports that some of the condo prices have been raised as much as 14 percent. Yowza! At the most dramatic, a two-bed/two-bath has been boosted from $985,000 to $1,125,000. Another two-bedroom was raised 7 percent. There was also some tweaking on the downside, with two other units getting reduced less than five percent. There are currently five listings in contract, according to StreetEasy.

The thread should be required reading for brokers, filed under “what not to do, because you’re never as smart as you think you are.”
I finally went to take a look at the place last weekend. The exteriors anyways.
Two words: utterly craptacular.
I’m a Dwell-reading, modernism-loving guy, so the design looked alright. Points off for the largely useless wedge-shaped balconies, of course.
The execution of the exterior, however, is terrible. If you are going to use concrete as your surface finish – you have to do it FLAWLESSLY. The edges aren’t squared, but chipped and shoddy looking. The wood fences on the street level were also done poorly, usin the flimsiest of wood, already cracked and splitting.
Yeah, raise the prices. That’ll work.
plan f —-Fill it with water,, fish and maybe the german Octupus named Paul. he can tell them what to price them at.
Hold on they cant keep water out,, How could they keep water in..
Plan G— Get a good umbrella.
Plan F. FAIL.

Sorrry they may already be on plan E or F by now.
How many brokers does it take to sell a building?……..Just one if he/she is smart.
I think that not the case here. Oldest trick in the world create your own bidding war, make them think they may miss the boat. This boat however continues to sink, plan B
is just around the corner.
