I have been in the Brooklyn Heights building on Willow Street. It is very nice, as is especially the neighborhood. While it is no "project" as someone mentioned, it is one of the "newer" apartment buildings, and has been there since at least the sixties. I don't know what buildings were there originally. It would be interesting to know this history.

Rooftop Gardening!

Also check www.insideurbangreen.org. See the “Rooftop Garden” links in the right side “Categories” list. This writer is an inspiring urban gardener (Brooklyn). I plan to try his prophetic sub-irrigation methods at my home – besides roofs, also fire escapes, front stairs, sides of buildings, etc. He makes it look easy for a gardening-challenged person such as I.
