Modern on Lincoln
We’ve been watching this new building on Lincoln Place between 5th and 6th emerge for the past few months. The architect is Brooklyn Heights-based John Hatheway. You can see from the Property Shark photo that it was a rather sweet two-story wood framed house with a bracketed cornice, which was sold in 2006 for $1.35…

We’ve been watching this new building on Lincoln Place between 5th and 6th emerge for the past few months. The architect is Brooklyn Heights-based John Hatheway. You can see from the Property Shark photo that it was a rather sweet two-story wood framed house with a bracketed cornice, which was sold in 2006 for $1.35 million; a hefty price for a tear-down. The FAR is 2.0, though, so once they knocked that out they could go higher. The new building permit, filed two years ago, calls for a four-story, four-unit building. GMAP
may the asshats who decided to build yet more crappy buildings lose all their money…lol
I like it.
Looks great in person.
Forget about bad timing or bad design this one gots lots and lots of zoning and code mistakes in it. Lets see how the defended of the gowanus canal zoning and all of Carroll Gardens can get out of this mess.
Balconies at 100% of the plan surface of the facade which they project from, tisk, tisk.
That is only the beginning………time to start worrying BIG TIME.
btw.. the only reason a construction job slows down is…NO MONEY…how surprising… these guys are doomed to lose money on an ill timed and ill conceived project…boo hoo
i love how mid century modern has been the excuse to generate mid century mediocre
My sympathies to the neighbors. How awful.
It is as if the new house is telling the rest of the block to drop dead.
It is absolutely the building which has been shown in the HGTV show, “Under Construction,” which shows the company Design Tech undertaking various projects in Park Slope and its environs.
balconies in the front are probably off the living area and sleeping is in the back which is user friendly.
the balconies are killing it for me. would much prefer to have them in the backyard not the street-yard.
