What's Up at 113 Prospect Place?

A tipster sent in this review of the construction at 113 Prospect Place: "The owners of a horribly neglected corner building, instead of pointing the very worn facade, are covering it with STYROFOAM...prelude to ALUMINUM SIDING?????!!!! Shoddy scaffolding...no permits....piles of garbage...truly shocking!!!" That's a lot of exclamation points for one building, but he's not the only one with his knickers in a knot over the building. In November, the Brooklynian boards were hopping with complaints about the project, claiming bits of debris were falling and no permits were posted on the site. There's only one recent permit on file with the DOB, to install a sidewalk shed for "remedial repairs." Maybe those remedial repairs include the falling debris? GMAP

I believe it's stucco and I think the fuckers have already painted it gray.

Ok, maybe not painted but covered in cement (or whatever is used for stucco). Perhaps they'll paint it to look like a brownstone.

syrofoam is a great insulator (as shown by the fact that they make coolers out of it)

Stucco is never gray anymore, more like ochre.
