When buildings like this are condemned for destruction, do the residents get a chance to move all their belongings out? All their furniture, clothes, – everything? Or, just the bare essentials since the building is structurally unstable?
Noise is preferable to being crushed, me thinks.
Is the front door on that building salvageable? Looks like a nice set of brownstone era doors.
The front doors on this place are pretty special too. I’m sure someone would want them
Wow, that was fast. What’s going on this week? I hope they don’t rush to judgement on MacDonough, too. But that block is landmarked, this is not. Might make some difference. I wonder if they can at least salvage the fireplace mantels. Small in the total scope of things, but something.
Man, I was watching this from the shuttle platform at 11-friggin’45 at night! Um, people need to sleep? How is it legal to be making this much racket that late at night?
Conspiracy. C-O-N-spiracy. Just like when they destroyed crops during the Great Depression to manipulate inventory, they’re doing the same thing to Brownstone Brooklyn TM.
This is an outrage!
***Help Haiti***
Poor neighbors!
SHIT THAT WAS FAST.
This better not happen on MacDonough. Christ, what a disaster.
