As a reader pointed out, workers have started the process of putting in those controversial windows on the side of Norah Jones’ Cobble Hill house. That’s it, there goes the neighborhood!

  1. “No one that posted a comment mentioned the celebrity.”

    So I guess you missed the “Leave Norah alone!” in addition to Mr. B’s write up.

    Mr. B’s write-up IS NOT a poster commenting! And until you mentioned the celebrity aspect NO ONE else did. You started this train crash and others jumped on.

    Not sure what your defense of celebrities are or what point you’re trying to make. Celebrities are in the public eye all the time and if you think that this thread is jeapordizing this celebrities security or well being, you are so mistaken.

    But tell me how you feel about those windows and the LPC process and the neighbors fighting the windows.

    oh dear goodness, I give up!

  2. If the current owner, whomever he/she be, had any balls, he/she would ask the neighbor for an easement so that he/she could build a really nice bay clad in copper on that wall.

    If I owned the land i would have suggested it. it would look incredible.

  3. “I think it’s unnecessary to discuss the celebrity’s name associated with this house and you think it’s fine.”

    If this is for me:
    They (posters) WEREN’T DISCUSSING the celebrity’s name! It was mentioned in the Title of the Post. It was a discussion (the posters talking) about windows, lintels and the facade.

    Why should this house be exempt from being discussed? Cause it’s owned by a ‘celebrity’? Big Whoop, really.
    This house is being discussed cause of the Landmark issue with the windows and the community up in arms over them.
