Development Watch: 717 Prospect Place
There aren't a ton of new buildings going up in Crown Heights, a function, we assume, of the relative lack of empty lots as compared to, say, neighboring Bed Stuy. One new effort is an eight-unit residential building at 717 Prospect Place just east of Rogers Avenue. When all's said and done, the new development will be about 9,000 square feet across five floors. It's too early to opine about the aesthetics but let's just say we don't have particularly high hopes. Maybe we'll be surprised. GMAP DOB

Yawn. Yet another building that has barely broken ground and you guys are already complaining about it.

This is really getting boring Mr. B. Can we talk about renovations. I haven't see a good post about brownstones or townhouses in like a year.
Let's talk about neighborhoods, eateries and such. Stop promoting big developers. You're getting old and stale like starbucks coffee or McDonalds. Do something innovative.

looks fine so far as long as they don't stick balconies on the front

What makes you say you don't have high hopes? Just curious to know where that's coming from and if it's based on anything you know about this development.

Um, well, maybe he doesn't have high hopes because most of what gets built around here is fuggggggggly.

No one is disputing that, 7:37, but is it necessary to post an example every day? At this point it's predictable and boring.
