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. It looks more like paint on the facade than stucco. The details including the cornice appear to be intact. I agree the “crap” comment was unduly harsh. Seven new windows in the bearing wall is just odd and un-historical. The new cuts better be careful engineered or Norah will have a four-story open lanai and an immediate vacate order on her hands.

  2. It’s only windows folks. Wouldn’t you think windows will look better than a blank brick wall.??
    It’s not like it is something completely off the wall, it’s just windows…..

    Hopefully they will be windows that will look like they have always been there.

  3. Pretty disgusting, isn’t it Pete.

    It’s bad enough we have a photo of the home up today of someone who probably moved to Brooklyn to be a little out of the limelight and now this.

    It’s one thing to pick apart a house for sale, but to snap a photo of a private citizen for the soul purpose of trashing it is deplorable, in my opinion.

    This website is becoming the TMZ of Brooklyn real estate.

  4. Minard, do you think that “thing” that we see in the second window is the new steel lintel??? If it is, unless it’s some form of titanium, it isn’t nearly as large as it needs be. I’m no engineer but you’d typically see at least an 8″ I-beam.
