MikeWalton718 reports in the Prospect Heights Message Boards: “The ‘Park Slope Garage’ on Sterling Place btw Washington and Classon is being rennovated, or more likely torn down to make way for brand new condos…”
“I know what you all are thinking: ‘Park Slope Garage’? Isn’t that in Crown Heights? The answer would be yes, but on the other hand, they’ve been abandoned for like 8ish years, I hear and they were infested with rats. I think it’ll be neato. I hope anyway.”
I’ve heard this too, but does anyone have any real information about this? Who is the developer? what’s the timeline? they’ve been sitting vacant for years, I checked on property shark and it looks like they’re all owned by Prospect Heights Community Alliance (or some company or organization with a name like that). If anyone has details, please share. I really hope they don’t build a fedders monstrosity. The building are really cool. I think they should maintain the facade and build some modern, glass condos on top of them.
on another note, I was really sad to see the new awning on key foods at washington and lincoln. When the old one was ripped, I hoped they would tear it down, restore the white gothic details on the building, and hang a simple saig like the key foods in brooklyn heights. (An unrealistic hope I realize), but why did they have to cover the neon green Ludwig’s Pharmacy sign?
