Development Watch: 328 Grand Avenue

328-Grand-Avenue-Brooklyn-0108.jpg
309-Grand-Avenue-Brooklyn-0108.jpgA couple of backhoes have shown up in the last few days at 328 Grand Avenue in Clinton Hill, but don't get your hopes up. First of all, there's no record of new building permits online. And even if there were, chances are we're in for another temple of mediocrity courtesy of the same guys who built the rental building across the street at 309 Grand Avenue (at right). As we said last March, we wish they'd kept the old two-story commercial building and built an interesting addition on top. Some Most people have no imagination.

it'd be interesting to see the kinds of places the guys who build such uninspired stuff live in themselves. this could be a really cool spread new york magazine perhaps. or maybe the onion.

Someone told me that there was a lot of extremely heavy equipment (perhaps from the trolley line that used to run on Lexington Ave?) buried under the lot and they stopped digging the first time when they encountered it.
