On this fairly modest stretch of Monroe Street, a five-story Karl Fischer-designed building is rising, wedged in between a pair of vinyl-clad two-story houses. (Pictured above is the similar house that used to sit on this lot.) It’s hard to argue with the fact that the scale of the building looks pretty ridiculous (then again, the building to the far right is the same height, so maybe we should be saying the small houses look ridiculous!); on the other hand, we’re tempted to give kudos to any developer doing anything better than a Fedders special in this neighborhood.
