Ah, to be an almost-finished development in a not particularly vibrant section of Bedford Stuyvesant at this stage of the game…When we stopped by 175 Spencer Street last week, the dude charged with preventing squatters from taking over told us that the kitchens and bathrooms still needed to be built in the 35-unit building, and it didn’t sound like that was happening anytime soon. Meanwhile, its sister building across the street appears to be fully rented, judging from all the dorm-like makeshift curtains hanging in the windows.
