Bay Ridge McMansion
Returning from our refinancing closing a couple of weeks ago, we drove down Ridge Boulevard in Bay Ridge for a few blocks. There were some very charming houses we saw. This one at the corner of 86th Street was not one of them.

I really hope the ROTD is decent so I can pop over there
Bxgrl;
Mr. B. rarely covers Bay Ridge. Given this, why does he choose to document a house that he considers ugly when he passes through it? If, as he states, he found many charming homes,why not document that aspect of the neighborhood?
I’ve seen you upset when Mr. B. chooses to highlight a negative aspect of CH, rather than its positive attributes. What is different about this case?

YEAH! It’s almost like watching a SPACE SHUTTLE launch! GOD BLESS AMERICA!! [cue Kate Smith]
DH- Only to a hysteric. All he said was he didn’t find it so charming. That’s hardly the nuclear blast you’re making it out to be.
Complaining about this house is un-American! Don’t you see the stars and stripes flying proudly in the front/side yard?
I don’t believe so Bxgrl. They also stopped making Dippidy Doo (sp?). Those were my 80’s essentials!
So calling a decent looking, new construction house ugly in a part of brooklyn that contains far less attractive new construction homes is somehow not putting a whole neighborhood on blast?
