this one’s definately an ugly betty
There are a couple of these wood-frame flat houses on South 1st – one has recently been redone (though I think the wood was removed and something else installed). But more and more of these buildings (in Williamsburg and Greenpoint) are having their fake cladding stripped and new wood siding installed.
So maybe we are getting less ugly, one building at a time?
the williamsburg prop looks wide, would be a good candidate for knockdown and condo buildout. wonder what its fate is.
hey, not everyone can be an elitist brownstone loving snob. We try, we try. But some of us have to bide our time and abide with the fugly.
williamsburg and greenwood appear to have a lot in common..fugly
without getting into universal statements like, ‘williamsburg is ugly,’ i note that the one building pictured here is a wood frame covered in re-roofing shingle. if i had $1.35M to spend on such a property, i would identify the historic exterior, probably shake or shingle, and replace it. sorry, 12:04, i don’t have any suggestions for improving the appearance of the neighborhood’s residents.
122 S 1st is a promenant loc in the upcoming Ethan Hawke crapper “State of Heat.” Y’know… history.
Would any average-sized human being fit through the “Alice in Wonderland” door in the Williamsburg house? Jeez!
Also flowerboxes would do so much. What do they have against plants and flowers in that ‘hood?
