What, was the buyer disappointed to find no tipis?

65 John Street, 9.3 acres and an $8.45 million price tag, was reported under contract just last week, and I reported that here. Today, the contract is busted and it’s back on the market. I hope the buyer wasn’t mislead by my enhanced photograph of the property.

In fairness, anyone that determined to have Indians on his meadows should have known that tipis were used by the Plains Indians, not Woodland savages like our native Siwanoys, who, when they weren’t beating their squaws or scalping and raping settler children, loafed idly in cardboard shipping boxes and wigwams behind the Riverside Caldors, subsisting on a diet of sticks, gravel and ditchwater.
