We told you back in June that, after eons on the market, the charming but rundown mixed-use building at the corner of Washington and Flushing Avenues had gone into contract for around $2 million. There’s no record of a closing in city records yet, but we’re guessing that it happened very recently because yesterday a crew started demolishing the old Navy Yard Cocktail Lounge, which The Times last year referred to as the “Scariest Bar in Brooklyn.” This photo was taken by a tipster in the early afternoon yesterday. We’re dying to hear what the new owner’s plans are for the place.
