^ yeah its definately uninspiring, especially as compared to via verde just to the north, but its practical, solid and well needed infill.

despite the loss of parking (ha!) this is good news, i was wondering what the delay was.

fwiw the A section is packing a lot into a small sliver of land right next to where the 2/5 train comes up out of the ground. currently it mostly parking lots. the only structure is a small old former post office/boxing gym. the other sections are a grassy triangle field across the street. there is some sort of perhaps pre-construction digging and work going on for this project in one small section already at bergen/149st.

btw very nearby we also hear that a couple parking lots will be developed into a new police precinct bldg. this is at westchester ave/st. ann's.
