Some Carroll Gardens residents are very, very upset about a Scarano building that a developer wants to put up on the corner of Smith Street and Second Place. According to Gowanus Lounge, plans for an 8-story, 46-unit building of glass and metal were recently denied by the Department of Buildings. But neighbors are trying not to leave anything to chance. Flyers have been popping up all over the nabe urging people to attend to show up for the Carroll Gardens Neighborhood Association meeting on June 11 at 7:30 PM at Buddy Scottos’ Funeral Parlor and to contact Community Board 6 to express concern over the scale and style of the project. And how’s this for street cred? The woman behind the flyers is the great grand daughter of Frank Lloyd Wright’s first cousin by marriage. Okay.
