After we broke the news yesterday of Whole Foods’ decision to go ahead with plans to build on a contaminated lot in Gowanus, Crain’s followed up half an hour later with a story of its own. And while neglecting to give our post a hat-tip, the business paper did come up with some interesting original content: This rendering. Neato.
atlantic center target AND sunset park costco
“Walmart? Seriously?”
Wake up, there is a reason Atlantic Center Target is one of the highest grossing stores in the nation. Most people don’t have a lot left over after the rent / metrocard / smartphone bill / fancy cocktail tab gets paid. Toilet paper is still toilet paper no matter where you buy it.
“Not sure your “no one” point is accurate”
yeah yeah, you and a few other people keep it real.
They could poach the well trained, polite Target staff from Atlantic mall.
“funny – no one has this point of view when an ugly condo building gets built on a formerly toxic/vacant lot. ”
Not sure your “no one” point is accurate
Rob your not a troll for “not liking yuppie amenities” but YOU ARE A TROLL FOR saying stupid stuff like the quote below:
“This development will go a long way towards bridging the Caroll Gardens and Park Slope neighborhoods
ew who wants that? and become another bococa?!”
I’d be willing to bet serious money on the following two propositions:
-If Wal-Mart were to announce an opening in Brooklyn, with “x” number of jobs, there would be 5*x number of people aplying for those jobs.
-It would quickly become one of the top-selling Wal-Marts in the country.
“HDL is right”
oh yeah – wal-mart is ruining the world. everyone knows this.
don’t care – NOT having a wal-mart in brooklyn isn’t going to change this.
11217, don’t confuse them with facts and actual locations. You saw how badly that turned out with park Slope bakeries.
