When we first laid eyes on the new building going up at 186 Grand Street in Williamsburg we thought it looked like the handiwork of Radusky et al at Bricolage. Then we remembered that we’d covered it back in early 2008 when there was a hole in the ground and a fuzzy rendering to go by. Based on that rendering, one commenter had this to say: “The devil’s in the details on this one. Could be good or could be very, very bad.” Based on what’s been built so far, it’s looking more like the latter, we’d say. Those windows lintels are a bummer.
