The NYT takes a look at the red-headed stepchildren of real estate: New condos that suffer from terrible views and proximity to highways and subway tracks (lookin' at you, Astoria's Astor!). Some brokers relish in taking on these challenges, and 'Burg maestro Dave Maundrell has some advice: "He advises brokers to be direct but also to have a sense of humor. He suggests jokes like 'At least you’ll always know what the traffic is like.'" Insert rimshot sound effect. [NYT]
