Three weeks after Transfer first wrote the story up, New York Magazine follows with a piece about the rebuilding on the corner of Sterling Place and 7th Avenue, site of the 1960 plane crash that killed 135 people. For reasons no one can point to, the two sites have sat undeveloped until recently, and it now looks like one of them will be large, family-geared condos and one will be a rental. As an aside, we also learn from the article that A&H honcho Peggy Aguayo grew up on Sterling Street in Crown Heights. Interesting. GMAP
