Not trying to stir up trouble, but what's the problem with these? Last time I looked Ocean Parkway was full of highrises that may or may not be nice on the inside but look like Soviet housing on the exterior. So this fits right in, no? I understand the grief if this was replacing a one family on a residential street, but seriously - what could they build on this address that would please you?
Did I sound negative? I haven't seen it in person and am hoping to check it out later today but the illustration looks ok. My experience w the new developments I've seen (like the new one on Ocean and Church) is the construction quick and design basic. I did take issue w some of the marketing language but I also found it funny...
And in case you didn't know "Ocean Parkway address for Brooklynites is comparable to a Madison Avenue address for Manhattanites".
Actually this isn't such a crazy statement. My parents lived in brooklyn until the 70's and back in their day (and for many long time brooklyn residents) Ocean Parkway was THE place to live. It really was like the madison avenue of brooklyn. If you had money and you wanted a showoff address you moved to ocean parkway. (btw my parents and my grandparents are STILL impressed by an ocean parkway address).
It's a great street. A friend and I plan to try walking it down to Coney Island. Not sure what that will be like, but I figure we'll see a lot! Sort of a Broadway of different neighborhoods.

Wouldn't it be nice if that was still the case? Now it's much more desireable to live further north which is probably why Ocean Pkwy is allowed to stay garbage strewn a bulk of the time and our little enclave off the entrance is a mess of trash and cracking sidewalks... I'm sure di Blasio and Brennen (Markowitz too) put as much time into OP and the nabe as they do the Slope.
Anon 1:02 - I've enjoyed bicycling the length of OP to Coney Island. Traffic can feel hairy sometimes, but in general it's an easy, pleasant ride. The architecture and neighborhoods are generally interesting. It could be quite a hike on foot.
When someone says...
"huh wheres that?"
The correct answer is...
Ocean Parkway is the "PARK AVE" of Brooklyn
response...OOOHHH! AAAAHHH!
notice you didnt need to explain the "WHERE" part
******************
i hope you didnt change it to madison avenue of brooklyn because the RE shills are trying to call the 4th ave stretch 'park ave of brooklyn'
