    New York's JhoRo put together a slideshow of apartments offering buyers all sorts of perks, and we kind of love the Let's Make A Deal strategy at Williamsburg's 1 Powers Street: "A buyer can pick one perk from a lineup that includes a free Vespa LX50; 12 orders from Freshdirect (one per month for $200 apiece); an iPod docking station and accompanying sound system; a $2,500 gift card to Ritz-Carlton Resorts and Hotels; 6 months’ worth of common charges; and more."

    The groundbreaking for NFL great Emmitt Smith's Harlem Hyatt hotel was originally scheduled for September, but a Harlem Bespoke tipster noticed some activity at the site this morning. Harlem Bespoke notes: "The crew is digging around currently on the grounds but nothing is happening that apparently requires a permit." The project has almost $20 million in federal financing, but it's not set to reach the end zone until 2012. [Harlem Bespoke; previously]

    "There was a time when Manhattan cabbies refused fares across the Brooklyn Bridge," but times change, and so here's Fox News' travel guide to Kings County. What does Bill O'Reilly's employer have to say about Williamsburg? "When you exit the L train at the Bedford Avenue Station and walk up to street level you might be tempted to turn around and head back to 14th Street." They love Park Slope, though.

    The big box stores are invading Greenpoint! In a totally non-threatening way that doesn't seem to bother local mom-and-pop store owners at all. Toys "R" Us is opening a pop-up on Greenpoint's Manhattan Avenue through Christmas, and brokers say the pop-up may just be the first in a wave of national retailers looking for space in the neighborhood. But local business owners are giving Crain's a big "meh" over it. [Crain's]

    Updated: 2010-08-30 15:19:06
    When Jonathan Miller calls an article the most accurate look at the post-Lehman housing market and "essential reading," that's good enough for us. So check out Saturday's NYT piece, which begins in this very unTimesian way: "You have to wonder sometimes what they’re smoking over there at the National Association of Realtors." For a more local look at the market, the paper also chatted with Elliman boss Dottie Herman. Sadly, they did not ask her what she's smoking. [NYT]
