The Underberg Is Falling Down
The Real Estate Observer
Reporter Matthew Schuerman has learned that Forest City Ratner could start demolishing the Underberg building as early as Monday if Brooklyn's biggest developer receives a permit from the NYC Department of Buildings.
But they better hurry. Opponents of the Atlantic Yards project will get another chance to delay the demolitions of several buildings—the Underberg will be just the first--when they file a motion for a preliminary injunction March 1, according to Candace Carponter, spokeswoman for the opposition group Develop—Don’t Destroy Brooklyn. That preliminary injunction, if successful, would forestall all tear-downs until a full hearing the week of March 13.
