Public Hearing: Navy Yard Supermarket
If and when the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation finally purchases the Officers’ Row Site at the corner of Flushing Avenue and Navy Street, it plans to launch a competitive bidding process to develop a 65,000-square-foot complex anchored by a supermarket. Not everyone is thrilled with the idea of tearing down the decrepit mansions known as Officers’ Row to make way for the market. A variety of positions on the issue will likely be present tonight at 7 p.m. when the BNYDC presents its plan at P.S. 307 at 209 York Street. For more information, contact 718-907-5936.
BSA Hearing: 163 Washington Avenue
This morning at 10 a.m., the BSA will hold its second hearing on 163 Washington Washington Avenue, where the developer is hoping to get special permission to build a 17-story tower that no longer conforms with the new zoning rules that went into effect in July. The hearing will take place at 40 Rector Street, 6th Floor, Hearing Room (E).

That public meeting on Officer’s Row last night was a joke. Elbowing through the crowds to get to a table to read a single copy of a draft report that is taped down to the cafeteria table, but trying not to take to long cause the next person is doing the same thing. It was impossible to study the findings in enough detail to make meaningful comments. So then, all anyone is left with is slogans: “Produce for the people!” “Save our heritage!”
Wow, what a beauty.
I can see now that aesthetics drove the decision to tear down the historic officers’ houses in the Navy Yard.
Very Nice.
Fort Lee circa 1994?
I think they stopped building this particular model of supermarket
in the burbs years ago but at last it is making its debut in Brooklyn.
