Towards the end of a glowing profile of Fort Greene in yesterday's New York Post, there were some interesting details about how some of the new developments in the hood are faring. By far the most successful in recent months has been the Classic Modern, the eight-unit project at 268 Cumberland Street where seven units have sold since hitting the market since February. It's been a tougher slog for the Forte (a Brownstoner advertiser) and Clermont Greene. A marketing makeover this spring helped ink another six deals at the Forte, bringing the total number of sales at the triangular high-rise to 42. And up the hill at the Clermont Greene, the project's brokers claim that the recent granting of the building's C of O has created "major momentum" and that the development is now 25 percent sold.
