Does the rendering above signal that Gowanus has suddenly become marketable? The building in question is the under-construction 255 1st Street (see photo on jump), which was designed by Steven Kratchman Architect, the firm that had a hand in designing Chelsea Piers. It’s entirely possible that the building’s name has changed since the rendering was produced, but we’re fascinated by the fact that the developers would name a condo between 4th and 5th avenues (in Park Slope!) after the canal/industrial neighborhood. The condo will have three one-bedrooms, 16 two-bedrooms and 13 three-bedrooms, and it’s supposed to hit the market soon. GMAP DOB P*Shark

  1. he-he-he happy holidays! more my children, more venom and vitriol this new year. may you all one day see each other bathing in the river styx in hades where hate is the only password.

  2. i don’t consider anything out of the historic district “park slope proper”

    Near 4th avenue is garbage. u see the same aluminum siding garbage you see in the burg. i’d rather live in the burg

  3. Park Slope is altogether too proper. As for the geography, they have maps on the lamp posts–of the Landmark District known as Park Slope. Sorry dudes, 1st Street between 4th and 5th Avenues isn’t even close.

    As for the SIDS well-wisher, I second the motion!
