Here’s a look at the blocks in Gowanus that Toll Brothers is interested in completely redeveloping. Toll’s 605,380-square-foot development would run from the canal to Bond Street between Carroll and 2nd streets.

2:34 – best idea I’ve heard.
LETS BUILD A POWER SUB STATION FACILITY AT THE PUBLIC PLACE SITE AND WATER TREATMENT FACILITY AT THE HEAD OF THE CANAL.
LETS KEEP IT AS INDUSTRIAL AS POSSIBLE.
LETS LET IT SERVE THE REST OF THE COMMUNITY THE WAY IT SHOULD.
Let’s just build a giant Ronald McDonald House. It solves the housing and cancer problems.
