Development Watch: 155 15th Street

Driving through the South Slope last week, we noticed a new building going up at 155 15th Street that had heretofore escaped our notice. When we looked it up on Property Shark we found that the five-story structure was rising on the site of a former church. According to IMBY, the church was called the Polish National Catholic Church of the Holy Cross and was torn down shortly after a Queens-based developer paid $3,850,000 for the church, the adjacent rectory and an empty parking lot. Replacing it is a 21-unit residential building with 14 parking spaces. Bummer.
