I think this is Flatbush proper
Wait maybe not, it is slightly to the East of Nostrand.
Regardless, the area between PLG and here is changing fast
It’s distressing to an extent in that many of them of actually really nice houses buried under decades of neglect – but it really bothers me less that many of the old SFH’s in Flatbush/E Flatbush are being replaced as it is that the replacements are many times truly abominable. I don’t know what it is about this area but it seems to attract absolutely wretched new construction architecturally. People should not forget there is a new development not far from here that hung the address of the building in giant Comic Sans. I mean you don’t do that to be serious – I’m not sure you do that to be funny – you do that to be evil.
Hopefully this one is good design. The same architect has a project across the street that doesn’t look terrible – at least in the rendering.
