Curb Cutting Verging on the Absurd

driveway
Over on Brownstoner, there’s been plenty of grousing about the nasty habit of curb-cutting, whereby a homeowner turns his yard into a driveway. In addition to looking like crap, the selfish practice reduces the amount of available street parking spots. Carroll Gardens has gotten most of the bad press to date on the issue, so we were surprised to see this curb-cutting doubleshot in the brownstone block of Hart Street just East of the Bed Stuy Home Depot. As opposed to the driveways in Carroll Gardens, where the front yards tend to be relatively deep, these look particularly silly given their shallowness.
