There are three penthouses at the Greene House Condos at 383 Carlton Avenue in Fort Greene, and all three of them were bought from the developer for $1,206,000 in late 2005. One of them had an ignominious spell on the market last year, starting at $2,750,000. After six price cuts, the price ended up at $1,590,000 where it failed to sell and was ultimately pulled from the market. Now one of the penthouses (we're not sure if it's the same one) is available for rent for $5,500, quite a bit less than it would cost to carry a purchase of a $1,590,000. The two-bedroom apartment definitely has some sex appeal: high ceilings, lots of glass windows, three terraces and panoramic views. Think this will find a taker?
