305thumbnailSome of you might have noticed I have been having a lot of fun with the Loft 305 this week. Well, the party found its way to my inbox. An anonymous tipster writes:

Thought you might enjoy these. View from inside 305 Lofts. Must be spectacular at night, eh?

Eager to see what Greenpoint goodness was attached to this email I enthusiastically toggled down.

I was not disappointed.

Perhaps I am being a stickler but this scenic vista looks very little like the one gracing Loft 305’s web site. Hmm…

    Doncha just love how their marketing wizards Photoshopped out the actual views from this shit pile?

  10. All kidding aside, I think it’s pretty awesome that when i flush my toilet my shit ends up down the block and gets treated and seasoned before being fed to whatever life form might be lurking in Newtown Creek. If I actually lived in those lofts, I’d probably play a game where I’d swallow a tiny glowstick and then when I poop it out and flush I’d try to spot it through my telescope floating in the cesspools. You could even time it and have races with your neighbors. Camptown ladies sing this song, doo doo, doo doo.

    We’ve been documenting our apartment search, and the relative frustration we experienced when we attempted to secure a lease at 305 McGuinness, and until now, I had to admit to a bit of schadenfreude when I saw the problems that the building was …
