Such an unusual and funny flashmob took place on the 27th of September in Brooklyn.
About 2,000 people took their "invisible dogs" out for a walk.
It looks very funny ))

What about a 25 million dollar triplex penthouse apartment in New York ? (13 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       18 Aug 2009       175637

Yes, this is not a mistake, this triplex penthouse apartment located in a clock tower near the Brooklyn Bridge and the Port of New York really costs some modest $25 million.
As it is a penthouse in a tower clock, each facade has a working clock in a 14-foot-high round window. This means you always know what time it is, unless you forget to read the time backwards...
And as it is a triplex, there are 3 floors and a very large area. The first floor which is the main floor is 3000 square feet - it is composed of an open living room, a dining room and a kitchen with a 16-foot ceiling.
At the center of the space, there is a glass-walled elevator surrounded by a staircase that leads to 2 other smaller floors. The 2nd floor is 2300 square feet and consists of 3 bedrooms. Finally, the last floor is "only" 988 square feet - it is an open loft with a 15-foot ceiling.
Another interesting fact, ‘the price is more than double the highest price known to have been paid for a home in Brooklyn.’ Its creator, David Walentas, said that ‘the ClockTower apartment was not timed to the fluctuations in the real estate market, because the apartment was a one-of-a-kind space that would appeal only to a one-of-a-kind buyer...’ The flat offers of course a beautiful view over the city, the port, the bridges and the East River.
So, tempted?)
