566 Hancock Street's Seen Better Days
This is a sad one.

This is a sad one. By last fall, the nine-unit building at 560 Hancock Street at Stuyvesant Avenue had been allowed to deteriorate to such a point that the Department of Buildings ordered that the building be vacated. Judging from a photo on Property Shark (which you can see on the jump), a handful of apartments were still occupied as recently as 2006, though the top floor appears gutted and windowless. What a shame—it’s a beautiful building. It looks like HPD has stepped in to put up the scaffolding but shouldn’t the landlord lose the building? This is a disgrace. GMAP P*Shark DOB
WOW!!! He really is losing it. That paragraph made absolutely no sense whatever. It’s like he’s one of the crazy people wearing a garbage bag walking down the street.
I really like the skittles thing though; that was good.
Maybe I’ll start using “Crows” in my sign off……black licorice gumdrops…no other colors.

I think the “Good and Plenty” people might be suspect though. They’ve got a licorice candy covered in white!!!
The What would like to thank you all for your suggestions relating to this property. Unfortunately, he does not have the funds or financing at this time to assist you in restoring this property and providing affordable housing in a neighborhood that would greatly benefit from such a project.
He would like to offer all of you the opportunity to restore this diamond in the rough, as long as you do not allow anyone with the means to pay the rent from actually living there.
Again, thank you all and may you all enjoy the rest of your day.
“The What is no doubt in favor of fixing the property, Mr. B., he just doesn’t want guys who look like us doing it. (Especially like you) lol.”
Not Assheads Denton, not Retards looking disingenuous! No one answered the real reason why they want this property fixed. I will tell you why: You witnessing the collapse of the Mutant Asset Bubble and there is no more Lithium Crystals to power the Reality Distortion Field Generator! Now you wish someone would fix a building that has been neglected for years like the same Retards wish the Atlantic Shelter would go away. This is cognitive dissonance at it very best and that the Retards reenforces my point everyday! If this Building bathers you so much then make an offer to but it and spend YOUR MONEY restoring it to it’s past beauty.
Ya’ll are just a bunch of unemployed, out of work, priced out of Park Slope, Ghetto Hi-jacking Retards A.K.A Asshats….
The What (Obama is going to buy me a pony, ROTFLMMFAO!)
Someday this war is gonna end…
That’s exactly it, denton.
Funny, my neighbors and I get along fine. I didn’t put them on a reservation or send them to the West bank.
The more you rant the more obvious it becomes that you’re really a loon.

Ah, Miss Chiff. And here I thought skittles were those little buggy things with numerous legs that run amuck though his version of a brain.
wasder- syphilitic brains have difficulty processing data- he meant rainbow (if you’ve seen their ads).
“When the Jews “took over” the West Bank and sent the Palistaines into Refugee camps the said the same thing!!!!! ”
Notice the confusion with basic terms- Jews/Israelis, Palistinians/Palistaines (I believe a palistaine is a coloring for wood. Not a brand I’ve heard of, however). And a complete incomprehension about the Middle East. It’s sad to see the deterioration. I can only watch with pity and hope his family finds a nice home to put him in.
Yes it’s sad about the state of this building but I think there’s still hope. I lived down the street from the following place for several years and always looked at it sort of wistfully when I walked by. The transformation has been amazing. I can’t believe that it wasn’t in worse shape than the other building:

PACC did a fantastic job of resurrecting this and a number of other properties as affordable housing. Not to be a pollyanna but I think it’s entirely possible that something positive an happen yet with the Bed-Stuy building besides demolition. It’s great housing stock worth saving. Though, realistically, in this climate it will take time.
