Follow-up on Community Board 2 Meeting RE Parking Regs

Ha Ha. -In a stunning turn of events, property becomes more valuable as a parking lot than as an apartment- If this is true, too bad for downtown Brooklyn who just spent the last 5 years getting rid of all the parking lots in trade for Condos and Townhouses. And to 9:39 and his No Truck Until Policy, sucks if you need to have furniture delivered (or are moving) to your apt. and they have a no delivery between 5pm and 9am policy. Or run a business that is typically closed after 7pm and now have to hire a 3rd shift to take in deliveries.

11:19 & 11:32: Comparisons? Some people want to see what others are renting their units for, just like you may be checking here to see the comps on brownstones in your neighborhood, to see if you are up or down. This site is not only for owners; potential buyers need to see what they will be able to get once they spend a mint on a brownstone and are trying to offset their mortgage. Others might want to know what they can get for their garden rental since their tenant of the last 4 years just left. Who knows exactly why people are looking, but I will say, this is an interesting post to me because someday I may want to rent my condo and will hopefully see comps here.

Most of the news on this site you can get anywhere- comps, sales, weekend listings, etc. All these things and the articles are pulled from other websites. Brownstoner has collected them for you so you don't have to check 20 different publications/sites.

Friends of mine lived on this block for 6 months before learning that their basement apt. floods during rain and that many other buildings on this block suffer from the same problem. The plumbing in these buildings from the houses to the city system is old and problematic.

Any news on the alt. side parking changes in Fort Greene and Clinton Hill? Isn't the announcement supposed to be made today?

2.01- Typically during recessions and depression [hopefully not] the entertainment industry fairs well as people need a distraction from the hardship. Granted, a movie doesn't cost a dime anymore.
