Bracing For The Worst on South Portland Avenue
South Portland Avenue is getting a new addition. At 97 South Portland, between Lafayette and Fulton, a five-story residential building was just approved on the site of a former garden center. (This is not the same block of South Portland that won the best block award from TimeOutNY a couple of years ago.) Given that…

South Portland Avenue is getting a new addition. At 97 South Portland, between Lafayette and Fulton, a five-story residential building was just approved on the site of a former garden center. (This is not the same block of South Portland that won the best block award from TimeOutNY a couple of years ago.) Given that the total height of the structure is 48 feet, don’t expect the kind of ceiling heights typically found in this part of town. (This site falls outside of the Fort Greene Historic District. Unfortunately.) In fact, based upon this architect’s other projects, it doesn’t seem like you should expect much at all. Let’s hope our pessimism is misplaced. GMAP P*Shark DOB

Biff: Your existance here is about talking about yourself and oversharing. I would have suggested to you to think about whether or not that’s really the kind of person you want to be, but you have proven – repeatedly – that it is the kind of person you want to be.
I am not stalking anyone. I am simply turning the tables on you, bxgrl and Dave. It is obvious you don’t like it despite your repeated comments to teh contrary.
Here are 3 easy ways for you to solve the problem: Stick to the topic at hand, avoid insults and stop treating this site as your personal living space.
If you can actually control yourselves, I would have nothing to do or say.
Now that I have actually pointed out to you how you can solve this, are you willing to behave? It is all up to you.
4:03, you’re a stalker. Your existence here is built on following around and stalking a woman poster. Think about that and whether or not that’s really the kind of person you want to be.

I hope you are not the teacher.

Words to live by. Do you practice what you preach?
I guess we’ll have to find another place to buy our Christmas tree every year, bummer.
And 3:00, you must be so proud that your whole identity (i.e., your login ID) is based on one thing – your trolling of bxgrl. Please seek some help!
After knowing this area since Cafe Lafayette was a liquor store, this is definitely a step in the wrong direction…there goes the neighborhood!
Gardel said he couldn’t get financing for a retail space, so it’s going to be all residential. I’m sorry to see his shop go, but I’m happy he’s not just selling it to some developer. Ugly or not, I prefer that the neighborhood stays in the hands of the people who have been a part of the neighborhood for ages.
“other than to remind you to please remember to register”
3:00, perhaps you should learn to read or do you just generally have issues finishing things you start?
