The buying and selling rampage continues. This time, an old wood-frame house, in pretty good condition, will make a nice tall something-or-other. A finger building. Middle finger, that is.
Take a look at the zoning - R7-1. That's the zoning that made 626 Flatbush possible.

While the Community Board is busy arguing over process and how to deal with Ms. Boyd, the developers are laughing all the way to the bank. Good or bad or indifferent, them's the facts Jax. Take a look to your left, and the right. All the wood-frame houses are just winter's kindling.
This one lot can have more than 20,000 buildable square feet. That's pretty swell at today's rents for a cool $1.7 million.
