93-Nevins-Street-0509.jpg
When we trumpeted the removal of the scaffolding from 93 Nevins Street back in February, we also noted that the developer was predicting that sales would start as soon as March and as late as Earth Day. Well, both deadlines have passed. At least, though, we can now see what material was chosen for the two-story addition. Personally, we’re not loving the choice; nor would we have gone with the white windows but chacun a son gout.

  1. I’ve said this on most of the past posts about this place. I lived across the street from 1994-6 when this was a crack house. The roof was broken and water flowed in for decades. Unless they hand scrubbed each brick and replaced all the masonry, there is no way this place should be sold as “healthy”.

    Lawsuits to follow under separate cover.

  3. Wpg, is this a dig about yesterday? Don’t be that way. Just because you were wrong yesterday doesn’t mean you have to carry on the pig headedness into tomorrow. Besides, this building is not a third taller, it’s exactly the same height as it’s neighbor. It’s still an architectural abortion but complies with the zoning laws. Progress!

  4. This appears more and more each year; an addition on top that has no architectural links to the older bottom portion. As my architect friends say, only half kidding, “It just makes it easier to demolish later if they don’t try to integrate the components.”
    Usually you just see suburban style tract houses plunked down on top of old industrial buildings, but compared to this site, they look almost classic. Maybe it would work on top of a taller building, where you couldn’t see the addition from the street.

  5. I walk by this property every date and kept waiting for the top to be finished. I assumed it was cinderblock that was going to get covered over. Guess not. Anyone no the layout. Is this i house? Apartments?
