but I'll bet you a penguin

Fluffy Kosher Antarctica one??? yummmmmm, hook me up!

[Lurker]

Good pshetel, but I'll bet you a penguin that they meant to write perspective .

I'll take that bet. And I like my penguins unstuffed, please.

BTW I noticed one one of the new videos that the flyby rendering showed a bunch of pools. So I guess it will be an option for some house types.

The biggest model in the brochure has poolhouse and pool bathroom on the drawings (back right side of the first floor), so definitely an option on that one.

To set a few controversial facts straight:
1) this man has tried to establish multiple communities in the past
2) he tried to establish a community in Orlando outskirts with R' Kesler from Viznits backing it, but R Kesler backed out so that fell apart.
3) he is an activist for low budgeting but is now supporting a new development that is more expensive than cheaper places in NY (like blumingburg)
4) R' Moskowits who is supporting this was involved in multiple projects that didn't work out.
5) There is a big factor with this person's heavy involvement in anti vax propaganda, he is from the founders of the Cheder in Monsey (bais shulem I think) that's only for anti vaxxers. Point is this person has a problem with the liberal NY. I met him personally this week, and have more questions than answers.

I really hope the community does work out with great success, I'm just lowering the expectations.

Who is the Anti Vaxer?  אליעזר קרויס or R' Moskowits

Not to high jack this thread.. but the answer is the former.   קרוס   is a pen name, his real name is ישעיה איצקאוויטש

(Moskowitz is the former rosh Yeshiva from נר תורה in Monsey)

How can they be sure that the people committing to buy are serious about moving there and aren't just buying summer homes?

There seems to be a serious vetting process to what you can add to the community

as much as i understand why they need to vet people
it turns me off from the whole idea so much

[JoeyShmoe]

I'm guessing that that's part of the reason for the extensive vetting process. This way they know that those that pass are really into it

i think they’re doing it mainly so they have a infrastructure they need to fill classes jobs ect.. basic things and roles to make it work and later to expand once something’s working they want to have teachers tutors daynaim subs rebeim cooks mashgichim store owners they’re going to have hatzalah Chaveirim a 24/7 health center so these things have to be portioned at least in the beginning you can’t accept 100 people and find out that they’re all cooks and you have no rebbeim

100% like i said i understand but it just makes me uncomfortable to think i have to be chosen to go live somewhere by some random investors
like "am i worth investing into"

Don't see why you are viewing it that way. They are not viewing it that way.

I’m guessing it’s just initial they have expansion plans

[LNS]

i think they have a game plan and are right for making sure all needs are met before just anybody moves in
just saying when i think about the vetting process i dont like the idea of it so much
thats all

[LNS]

I’m guessing it’s just initial they have expansion plans

that's what i understood as well

[1avigrun]

that's what i understood as well

They don’t want it to be mesiras nefesh and firstcomers (nachsonim) they want to open with a fully working place with all amenities and leisure you would find from a regular Jewish place

[ushdadude]

I heard they actually borrowed their protocol from Elon's Mars project.

What is going to happen with his shul in Monsey?

He's not moving away from Monsey.
