Introducing Gowanus, the Condo
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.

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

yes, all those losers falling in love and getting married and having children. god, isn’t it great to be loathed and unable to find a decent relationship.
too bad your mother didn’t abort you you crotch fruit 4:20.
good luck in the future although i bet you don’t survive the holidays in your solitude.
remember to slit your wrists before you over dose on sleeping pills just in case somebody smells you and brings you back to life before you die.
merry christmas!
To poster 2:48 I think it is completely pathetic that you already know all the comments people make on this stupid site by heart before they write them. And for Mr. Brownstoner to day that people whose reply comes up in darker type makes them seem more authoritative or legit blow it out your ass.
Yeah, agreed 7:28…nyc has more of a family vibe now cause there’s about 500% fewer people smokin crack and shootin dope than there were in the late 80’s / early 90’s – a little more conducive to raising a family.
“F*cking Park Slope breeders and their repulsive crotch fruit. Planned Parenthood ought to offer discount abortions to everyone in PS.”
Not a parent, nor a Park Sloper. However, have you not noticed that there are “breeders” and “crotch fruit” in increased numbers ALL OVER NYC? I live in Stuy Town and it’s one big nursery. Every Manhattan and Brooklyn neighborhood I visit is overflowing with strollers and youngish-parents. Get over your hate.
“crotch fruit” is as old as your crotch, 6:44
I agree that this nabe-bashing is incredibly stupid and boring.
But I have to give it up for the description of children as “repulsive crotch fruit.”
Nice.
