Well, this is one way to doctor the Novo: New York Methodist Hospital is opening an ambulatory care and infusion center in the ground floor of 4th Avenue’s largest condo. The outpatient facility will replace the one currently across the street from the hospital’s 7th avenue building, according to Lyn Hill, the institution’s VP for communication and external affairs, and serve outpatients who need infusions (mostly people undergoing chemotherapy). Hill says the facility should be open by the end of this year and will likely have regular daytime business hours. Doesn’t seem like this’ll do much to change 4th Avenue’s lack of pedestrian-friendly features in the same way retail would, but at least it’s a potentially valuable medical facility for the community.

    “hopefully it will have been moved to carroll gardens or cobble hill — or maybe even park avenue”

    All so someone extremely nauseated from chemo can take hours to get to their appointments? Or pay lots of money for a car service? Just so you don’t have to look at them? Typical Sloper.

    People get cancer everywhere, dummy. Even in Park Slope and South Slope. Those people will not want to go to other neighborhoods especially ones so lacking in decent transportation like Carroll Gardens. Secondly, the doctors who send their patients to this treatment center are at Methodist Hospital IN PARK SLOPE. Hi. Use your brain.

    I have advice:

    “I love 4th Avenue. It’s edgy, it’s a little industrial, it’s a little rough, it’s got great new clubs and restaurants opening….”

    Don’;t talk like that. Yourbrokerspeak muist have gotten stuck in script mode.

    If you use the word “edgy” in a sentence, you have no grasp of what “edgy” is.
