Borough President Vito Fossella penned a letter to the city’s Department of Finance (DOF), as borough officials probe a strange and complex tax saga that cost a Mariners Harbor condominium complex its pool and tennis court.
A tax lien was sold in 2015 for the former communal space, located off Lisk Avenue among 300 homes in the City West condominium complex. That sale effectively jump-started a process that resulted in the property’s new owners placing locks on the plot and listing the 0.6-acre property for sale for over $1.2 million.
State Sen. Jessica Scarcella-Spanton (D-North Shore/South Brooklyn) has also met with the board of the complex and is seeking to mediate the ordeal. It is not clear if the current owners of the property, who have not responded to an Advance/SILive.com request to comment, would attend any meeting.
