Gerard Longo is expanding his business to brownstone Brooklyn.

Marine Park-based residential brokerage Madison Estates and Properties
is expanding into brownstone Brooklyn and is planning a leap into
Manhattan. The 60-agent firm will open a new office in a renovated brownstone at
53 Douglass Street in Carroll Gardens by mid-June, according to Gerard
Longo, the firm’s president. The move doubles the number of company
offices from its lone location at 2922 Avenue R in Marine Park in the
southeastern section of Brooklyn. Longo said his aim is to take advantage of the down market to grow the name brand in the rest of Brooklyn. [more]
