As this photo shows, the gutting of Albee Square Mall, once legendary rapper Biz Markie’s ‘Home Sweet Home,’ is well under way in preparation for demolition of the 31-year-old structure. Developer Acadia Realty Trust and its partners plan a roughly 1.5 million-square-foot tower on the block, which could rise between 60 and 70 stories, said co-developer Paul Travis of Washington Square Partners. The project, called City Point, is designed by GreenbergFarrow. Demolition of the Albee Square garage was completed back in January. GMAP DOB

10:37 – yes, i am an outsider, you shmuck. one of the most idiotic comments i’ve seen on this site.
“volatility = cash money”
for the insiders. you’re an outsider.
“”Civil” That’s cool What.
So man up, are you livin in BK?”
Naw man! I’m Repping Lodi NJ! L to the O to the D to the I!!
The What
Someday this war is gonna end…
“Civil” That’s cool What.
So man up, are you livin in BK?
“Your money is in the garbage. Last week was a sucker’s rally. The markets are on life support. Plug keeps popping out. WTFU.”
volatility = cash money. these markets are great.
I have something to say: I found out being civil is very cool. If you go off all the time people wont respect you opinion. For now on I will try to be civil and not get drawn in Vs v Vs attacks. However I reserve to right to change the rules of engagement.
Our Economy is imploding right now! The credit markets have seized up. Our Government is covering up the crimes of Investment Bankers. See the protest on Bears Sterns and JP Morgan, people are really upset. Food, Gas and other Commodities are very high now. I was at the Gas Station and there was no cars there. We are in end-game times and you can ignore our current situation at you own peril.
The What
Someday this war is gonna end…
Wow, must be the meds
“so far, fed > what. my money is on the fed”
Your money is in the garbage. Last week was a sucker’s rally. The markets are on life support. Plug keeps popping out. WTFU.
“Retail in brooklyn for large chains will boom”
Buy some shares. You won’t. You know you’ll lose. Your opinions are based on bogus GDP numbers that will be revised and revised and revised…
Thanks, 5:14. I’m still dubious, and I note that the quoted source is anonymous, but at least I know this isn’t cut from whole cloth. — 3:37.
