Curbed, one of our most fav New York real estate blogs, has a report about a building in New York City located at 280 Mulberry Street.
It has wavy bricks on the façade. I know, is it for real?
Curbed isn’t sure but doesn’t care. It a gets thumbs up in the Curbed review.
So why?
Well, it’s the penthouse.
I have to say, I like it too.
Check it out at CurbedWired 290 Mulberry
(Don’t forget to click on “penthouse” and that will take you to the detailed pictures.)
But I noticed something else rather interesting on Curbed’s home page.
There was an ad for a new development called The Viridian.
Hey, there’s a new Viridian going up in Nashville too. I thought our Viridian was unique. Apparently not.
Here’s my point.. Green is in. Developers and real estate investors are coming up with green names for a reason. People like green. Does the name Viridian make it more green, as in actually saving on the carbon footprint idea? Probably not, but it certainly sounds good to today’s buyers.
