764-4th.jpgLet’s hope Brooklyn continues to grow as a tourist destination. The transformation from street of auto shops (see old building on right) to street of accommodations continues. Yet another hotel is going up, this one a Best Western at 764 4th Avenue, on the corner of 26th. The news came from a tipster who spotted the announcement on the Marshall Management Web site. The new building permit, filed in November of 07, calls for a 10-story building. Recently there’s been some excavation, and the day we went by things were in full swing. GMAP P*Shark DOB

  1. As a homeowner living around the corner on 28th Street (and a landlord who rents the top floor to young professionals) hopefully this hotel will be able to serve as a place for friends and family to stay when they are in town. It’s a perfect spot for all of us to use for that purpose without breaking the bank.

    If we fill it up with customers there won’t be any need for the owners to resort to marketing a 1/2 hr rate. 😉
