StreetLevel: Watering Hole Replacing Aquarium
Slopers haven’t been able to buy fantails or black moors at Brooklyn Aquarium for a while now, but soon they’ll be able to drink like fish at the old 9th Street storefront. The owners of Smith Street’s frat-acular Angry Wade’s are opening a bar in the former pet-supply store space, which has been under renovation…
Slopers haven’t been able to buy fantails or black moors at Brooklyn Aquarium for a while now, but soon they’ll be able to drink like fish at the old 9th Street storefront. The owners of Smith Street’s frat-acular Angry Wade’s are opening a bar in the former pet-supply store space, which has been under renovation for a few months. The new business is going to have a pool table and a small kitchen, and it’s expected to open within the next few weeks. Think you’ll give it a shot? GMAP
actually that bldg has applied to get out of the Mitchell Lama program and to charge market rates.
You people are ridiculous. I can’t believe that you are trying to spin that ugly building filled with low income tenants as something other than a project. What ever it is, it sure lowers the value of anything near it, I can tell you that much for sure.
It sure looks like a project to me.
Am I not turtle enough for your turtle club?
As hard as it is for you to accept that a tall brick building with nondescript architecture containing many minority residents is NOT a project. The building you mention, isnt wasnt and never was “projects” – it is a privately owned Mitchell-Lama building. Originally owned by the Lefrak Organization and more recently by Laurence Gluck (Stellar Management).
So yes 5:05, even within the ridiculous borders you cite – Park Slope has NO PROJECTS.
Re M/L – If it looks like a duck and sounds like a duck then…..
so the answer to the question…is there housing projects in park slope…
no.
that’s a Mitchell-Lama building which is affordable housing for middle income residents, it is not NYCHA which run the “projects”.

I walked by when they were doing construction and was briefly shown around the inside, and all I can say is this place is going to be beautiful – it’ll really add some life to this neighborhood and be a great place to chill with a beer and a bite! If the burgers here are as good as the beer-brats Wade has put out at the smith St. fair, this place is going to be awesome!
