Uncouth in the City

New York City landlords used to drive a hard bargain. But the luxury condo glut means buyers are now in the driver’s seat - sometimes literally. At One Brooklyn Bridge Park, the 14-story complex in Brooklyn Heights, developers are trying to lure buyers by throwing in a free car with an apartment purchase. The first 10 people to drop $2 million or more on a condo in the $550 million waterfront project before Sept. 30 will get a free 2010 Audi A4 - with parking.

I don’t want a free $50,000 car. I want a reasonably-priced apartment. Drop the price by about $750,000 and we’ll talk.
