Development Watch: Butt-Ugly on Smith
What can you say about this Bricolage piece o’ crap going up at 478 Smith Street at the corner of 9th Street? Not much really. Given the size of the three apartments, they presumably have been designed to sell as condos but it’s hard to imagine anyone deciding to sink their nest egg into this,…

considering the location, it really isnt so bad…still early to tell, hopefully those holes arent for gigantic fedders
it would be nice if the remaining ‘charming’ aluminum siding pos’s get torn down..if a few similar buildings go up the block will be ok
bstoner can really pompous sometimes. this is an example
B-Stoner is a chump.
“piece o’ crap”?!?! Have you been on that corner? Do you see the houses next door?
Get some perspective or at least pull that perfectly restored crown molding out of your hairy butt.
it aint so bad
good location being by a train stop, they are prob better off renting it out
oh no, who in their right mind would buy something other than a FG/CH Townhouse!?!?!?
the notary district goes residential and ny’ers go boffo!, snapping up all available units in less than 30 minutes. not f line bagels renames the everything bagel with schmeer, formerly know as “the notary,” henceforth to be known as the “cancercondo”
it would look really cool if the old ratty motorboat from the lot was mounted up top, like a lifeboat suspended by ropes over the top edge instead of the usual cornice. (intentinally set to be non-level)
proximity to toxicity and brownfield bagels a plus…
Apparently they are trying to sell the bottom floor for commercial space at $4500/month. That might not be a bad idea with train there.

Too early to tell. Hopefully they will go with the industrial look and install a freight winch hanging off the front above the large bays and not put balconies on.
Whatever… Y’all will be lined up bidding above ask when this POS goes on the market.
“It’s a gem!”
