The Horror, The Horror: New Build in The Stuy

Aw, man, seeing this ruined our day. Crap construction is a greater long-term threat to Bed Stuy than crime or racial tensions, in our opinion. The latter two problems can be improved over time, but an eyesore like this lasts a lifetime (or two). Does anyone know if this Lexington Avenue development is part of a government-subsidized program or is this just the worst side of the free market in action? Who’s going to shell out $700K for this, anyway? Surely for $350 a foot one could do a little better. Heck, why not move to Gravesend.
