Do you want 14 residential units and 3 commercial units in beautiful Brooklyn for the low low price of: Free? The blogger at Hawthorne Street points to Prospect Lefferts' 205 Parkside Avenue, "an abandoned rathole" that has been vacant since 1979 and is now being advertised as free (though they doubt it's really free). There's even a Craigslist ad backing up the sign on the building. Any takers? UPDATE: The new rumor is that this is a prank. We still bet squatters could get in a few months of free rent, however.

ha. i used to live feet from this building years ago. this building used to be filled with squatters and prostitutes. the corner in front is hot for drug dealers which sometimes erupted into violence and gunshots.
i wonder why they dont' sell it for real. some body would love to fix that thing up.
Probably the usual reasons in this city. Tons of code violations that will need big bucks to fix and/or holding out for a better price.
