"HOT HOT HOT"
Not to dampen a landlord's prospects to make a buck, but this listing from Prudential Douglas Elliman needs a little clarification (and a new photo after someone takes ten minutes to move the stuff to the other side of the room):
Vanderbilt Avenue
Prospect Heights
cross street: Dean StreetStyle: Commercial
Rent:$4,700 per monthCommercial space in HOT HOT HOT Prospect Heights! Highly visible CORNER LOCATION on Vanderbilt Avenue, near the upcoming development in Atlantic Yards.
NoLandGrab: This property is across the street from Phase 2 of Bruce Ratner's controversial Atlantic Yards project. PHASE 2 HAS NO OFFICIAL TIMETABLE for construction, making "upcoming" accurate, like, in a geological timeframe.
Much of the property in Phase 2 is being flattened by Bruce Ratner and is sure to be plagued by demolition blight for years to come, which would definitely make nearly anything that moves into the corner space "highly visible" and a welcome improvement to the neighborhood.
