408 franklin avenue bed stuy 72014

After years of sitting exposed to the elements, this partially constructed house at 408 Franklin Avenue in Bed Stuy has sprouted another story and some plywood sheathing, according to a tipster. It is a Fedders-style house that was abandoned mid-construction two years ago, he said.

New building permits reissued in June call for a three-story, two-unit house with 3,038 square feet. The 1,444-square-foot lot at the corner of Franklin and Monroe was previously an empty lot. It last changed hands in 2006 for $115,000.
