62 Imlay Street, the sibling warehouse to would-be conversion 160 Imlay, is going to have a well-heeled new tenant: Venerable auction house Christie’s has inked a deal to lease the waterfront building for storage space. The deal will surely be one of the largest lease signings in Brooklyn this year. The 235,000-square-foot building’s owner (who also owns 160 Imlay) has sought a commercial tenant for 62 Imlay for about a year and a half. A spokesperson for Christie’s says the auction house expects to occupy the building by early next year and that it will be used “primarily for storage.”

Memries,
Like the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories
Of the way we were
Scattered pictures,
Of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were
Can it be that it was all so simple then?
Or has time re-written every line?
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we? could we?
Memries, may be beautiful and yet
Whats too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
So its the laughter
We will remember
Whenever we remember…
The way we were…
The way we were…
Warhol could fill that building all by himself.
Lots of contemporary art went unsold at the last auction.
