Development Watch: Nothin' Doin' at 1097 Bedford Avenue

While construction proceeds apace at 1142 Bedford Avenue, a huge lot across the street sits vacant.

I wish they could put some sort of decent retail…such as a decent supermarket..not bravo…associated….met…..or a theatre…but not enough space for those two I am guessing. Oh i got it. How about a nice duane reade or rite aid or walgreens.yeah thats it……or a barnes and nobles…yeah..multi-leveled. yes…..either one will suit me just fine.
Right on the corner of a two family house I am selling 365 Gates, and the block of the newly renovated YMCA. The real interest here should be the vacant massive brownstone directly across Bedford and the huge lot behind that.
