A reader sent in this photo of three dumpsters lined up outside 195 President Street in Carroll Gardens, a four-story home currently undergoing an interior renovation. Our tipster calls the site a “disgusting mess.” Apparently the developer has done a few rental projects around the block on Clinton Street. She says:
They have had a couple of problems due to their own carelessness, including not locking up the site at night and having water meters stolen and not covering or locking the end gate on their dumpster. There was a man dumpster diving a night for scrap metal who got pinned in the end gate when trying to get out–the neighbors heard screaming and called 911. The fire department also showed up one day when the dumpster was so overloaded it was “jumping” when they were trying to take it away. The big dumpster in the picture hasn’t been removed and they brought in two additional small ones.
