I’m thinking of taking a place on 14th Street btw 7th/8th. I love the place and the location, but their are things about the block that worry me:

1. It’s across the street from the Park Slope Armory. When the athletic facility opens there could be issues with noise and traffic. I’ve read that the entrance will be on 15th st, but I’m not sure if that’s a fact or not.

2. Like a lot of blocks in the South Slope, there is some development going on. I’ve read about two projects on the block so far, so there is always that risk that a neighbor would sell to a developer and I would be living next to a construction zone.

Is anyone familiar with the block, future developments in the area, or concerns/issues with the Armory?
