It looks like there may be some disagreement about who fired whom at One Madison Park.

Brown Harris Stevens said in a statement released to The Real Deal today that it terminated the contract at the luxury condominium building, not the developers, Ira Shapiro and Marc Jacobs.

“Brown Harris Stevens On Site Marketing and Sales has terminated its exclusive sales agency agreement for One Madison as of Nov. 20, 2009,” the statement said.

By contrast, the developers claimed through a spokesperson that their exclusive marketing contract with Brown Harris Stevens had expired, enabling them to bring on a new marketing firm, Prudential Douglas Elliman. Tamir Shemesh, a managing director
at Elliman, is handling sales at the project and is acting as a spokesperson for the developer.
