Well alrighty then! Miss Heather The fine folks behind the architectural splendor that is Belvedere gave us Garden Spotters a very special Valentine’s Day present recently: demolition permits for 607 – 609 Manhattan Avenue! No word on what Belvedere VII will look like (no plans are posted on Belvedere Partners web site), but I can only hope it [...] With today being the last day of Black History month I thought it would be nice to feature this great painting of Malcolm X from (where else) Malcolm X Boulevard.

As was mentioned at last month’s Town Hall Meeting, the power plant proposed to grace Bushwick Inlet is not exactly alive— but more disturbingly it isn’t dead. Next month the Siting Board meets in Albany to determine the future of this project. Which brings me an email I recently received [...] |
