The warning signs about the condo conversion at 333 Carroll started last Spring in a reader-submitted post on Curbed that noted the “sonic booms” and “brown chalky love” during the demo phase. To refresh everyone’s memory, this is a 19th century factory that’s getting an 8-unit penthouse addition courtesy of Scarano Architects. (Skyline view at right.) Things got a little hairier last week, according to one neighhbor, who descibed a loose piece of corrugated steel crashing onto the roof next to his living room (about 8 feet from his baby’s room window), shattering the gutter in the process. “Perhaps Set Speed would like to buy there since he is already familiar with the architect and developer – the same as the Washington,” notes the tipster. We can’t speak for Set Speed, but as long as this place also has plywood floors and 5-foot ceilings, count us in!

On the jump, 333 Carroll Street before and after.
