Five Story Condo Site at 47 Dean Causing Problems With Boerum Hill Neighbors

A partial stop work order is in effect at this site at 47-49 Dean Street near Smith in Boerum Hill. Apparently the excavation was undermining neighboring homes. One comment at the DOB web site says neighbors complained about things shaking: "Thinks (sic) are being knocked off the shelves."

Another complaint said that construction was "contrary" to approved plans. In July a 12-car parking lot was denied. Anyone have any updates?

The man working here Wednesday morning (next to car) said that a five story condo was being built on the very deep lot. "It going to be very big," he said.
