The bloom is off the rose at 102 3rd Street. From what we hear, the owner of the lot that has been home to the Gowanus Nursery for the past several years is close to selling the lot, which runs all the way through to 4th Street. Word is that there are two bidders at around $1.3 million. Anyone have any suggestions for finding the nursery a new home?

How about Atlantic Ave., in eastern Clinton Hill/Prospect Heights or western Bed-Stuy/Crown Heights? There are definitely vacant lots and I believe there are grants available farther east.
I don’t think it’s likely that they’ll find a nice big space anywhere where housing competes for vacant land.
oh, sad. i hope they find a good place to relocate.
i also LOVE the nursery and Michele and her mom are both great! they’d be a great asset to any community though i think their current location is ideal–parking there is never a hassle.

How about 1638 8th Avenue at Windsor Place?

Seems like an ideal use for an odd-shaped piece of land that’s difficult to build much else on.
There is a lot on Waverly bet Gates & Greene.
How about that empty lot that was next to the old Adami on Myrtle?
How about that empty lot on Lafayette?
I love this nursery– and would be so psyched if it would move to FG/CH. There are a number of vacant lots that seem ideal– one that I can think of on Myrtle near the old Adami, for example. Does anyone know specifics on one of those?
