The cheesy facade of 57 Front with the juliet balconies is delectably turdalicious.

Agreed. It was a very troubled development. But I live in 57 Front and have to say, we have one of the most reasonable boards in Dumbo and a really nice community. The history is definitely lousy. But the present is really nice. We like it here a lot.

57 Front is and always has been a deeply troubled development. And it’s a Boymelgreen project. Boymelgreen has been very instrumental in the movement to turdalize Dumbo.

Okay guys, I appreciate the desire to pump up your property for resale—and for everyone’s property values, I hope you get that price—but can we quit the trolling here or make it a little more artful? I mean, this MON DIEU, HOW BEAUTIFUL! act is a little ridiculous.

Arent those chairs by Philippe Starck as well? Those are the chairs in Cafe Costes in Paris. Is Philippe Starck the seller?

Just saw this penthouse in 57 Front featured in NY Post’s House of the week.

I have called the Elliman agent and am scheduling a visit. The interior I would say is very avantgarde and understated, intrigued with the high-end features. More my style, modern minimalist, Wallpaper/Abitare kinda design. The 1 Main Street is very nice as well but not my cup of tea with it’s shabby chic style.

Well, as interesting as this all is, I’d best be going. That crack ain’t going to smoke itself!

The clocktower condo is off the beaten path, on the water & on the park. To me there is no comparision.

eddie wilson is a notorious dumbo hater from the other blogs, but yet he made his way to reading and posting on a dumbo blog. i’ll keep my presumptions to myself, but can it get any more obvious.

I don’t see the reason for comparing these two address: front st is 1 bed, 1 bath in 1100 sq ft; main street is bedroom + office with 2 baths. front st terrace can be used only a part of the year while main st sq. footage is in use all year
