A single parking spot in Park Slope just sold for $250K. “Opened in 1986, Park Slope Garage Condominium sits across from the Park Slope Food Coop at 841 Union Street. The garage was the first of its kind to win state approval to sell parking spaces as "condos.” [Streetsblog NYC]

Local residents had been flooding their elected officials with complaints about the dust, vibrations and noise from the SIMS Concrete Recycling Facility, operated by NYC DOT, ever since it was temporarily relocated to the north end of Brooklyn Marine Terminal site in the Columbia Street Waterfront District in February 2024.” [Brooklyn Eagle]

Stoop of the Week
And now, a garage that actually comes with a house…
“This carriage house, like most others in Brooklyn Heights, was designed not just for horses but for carriage drivers too. During the late 1920s and early 1930s, these carriage houses were converted into garages. Today, most of them have been converted into some of the most coveted residences in New York City.” - @travistraversing
