*Is this the ugliest housing in all of New York, or just in Red Hook? You be the judge.*
Ugliest? how about most-poorly-planned-eyesore. What's with the city planning board that allows this junk to be built? Low cost housing does not have to be low cost.
Junk like that is appearing all over town, not just Red Hook. Perfectly good buildings are being demolished to make room for krapp like this. Yet our development-happy mayor and developer-supported politicians say and do nada.

Those Red Hook specials are known as "Fedder houses" (reference to the ugly A/C units).
Ugliest? Nope. The 6-story condos that are going up in Sheepshead Bay along Ocean Avenue are the ugliest buildings in Brooklyn.
