Work seems to be proceeding to turn the school and rectory at 180 Bainbridge Street in Bed Stuy into apartments, judging by the bin outside and general look of things when we stopped by recently. However, the application was approved way back in 2006. The property changed hands in 2011 for $2,400,000, according to PropertyShark, and then in March was slapped with a $2,000,000 building loan lien and a $2,000,000 mechanic’s lien. The Holy Rosary School is located close to now-hot Stuyvesant Heights; the Gothic Revival structure was built in 1922 and designed by Helmle & Corbett. Anyone have more intel?

I live a few doors down from Holy Rosary School, so I can say with some authority that 1) this is Stuyvesant Heights, and 2) it is within the new expansion of the Stuyvesant Heights Landmark District, and 3) the renovation of Holy Rosary has been continuing at full steam – the owner expect to start renting in the fall.
