My wife and I went to the open house yesterday simply out of curiosity. In my humble opinion it is easy to see why the Vista is almost sold out and why 99 Gold isn't doing all that well. Though a couple lines were unique and intriguing, most floorplans were perplexing rather than inviting especially when you compare price points.

[...] DUMBO – Breaking news from The D: “Someone on dumbo.nyc said a partial stop work order had been issued on 99 Gold. People seem to love hating that building too so figured I’d send along.” Aaaand, confirmed. [CurbedWire Inbox] [...]

I am refering to the 99 Gold Street developer and the recent announcement to go rental. Has anyone heard about getting back deposits?

We put a downpayment and just found out 2 days ago the offer is withdrawn. We are extremely upset about it, and would like to hear from other affected people to seek explanation!!
We all put our lives on hold for several months, and some sold apartments! We gave up a previous apartment, moved to temporary rented housing and what not.
Encourage anybody in such group to respond. Would anybody affected be interested in building up a case? Developer needs to see this is a matter of people’s private lives changed in a big way.
Some big publicity needs to be made on such behavior and on this project – this cannot go unresponded!

99 gold will definitely be rented – we had planned to buy and now can’t

I imagine the reference is to 99 Gold… sales have certainly been very slow there for awhile. If you go to the Developers Group website, it says “Open House Cancelled” for 99 Gold. This is definitely an interesting development… I toured the building last year and thought that many units were overpriced.

I just heard that the offering plan will not be put into place. All apartments will be offered for rent… Crazy!!

I just checked Corcoran and the last two Vista available units are now officialy in-contract. Its nice to see this condo has done so well before the building is even finished and is a testament to the potential both DUMBO and Vinegar Hill have collectively.

I walk by the Vista daily and they appear to be moving along, putting in the final details. The other day they had two women cleaning the street level windows. And it looks like floors are in and appliances are installed.
As for 99 Gold….its a ghost town. I have not noticed any changes.

I read about that also. Sands and Gold is not Vinegar Hill. That cross street is in the heart of the projects.

I read about the attack in the Police Blotter. Apparently the attack took place last month on Sands Street near Gold Street. This was not outside 99 Gold. (And I don’t believe closings have started for that building, actually.)
