Whatever Happened to 800 Myrtle?

It’s been almost two years since we broke the news of a planned mixed-use development on the south side of Myrtle between Nostrand and Marcy. The project, which was being spearheaded by the Northeast Brooklyn Housing Development Corporation, was supposed to be constructing 88 units of residential housing on top of 14,000 square feet of commercial space. Unfortunately, the city-owned lots are still sitting vacant and not a single filing has been made with the Department of Buildings. Meanwhile, after a Stop Work Order this spring, the Scarano-designed project at 756 Myrtle is moving along again. New photo on the jump.
