‘Screeching’ Cobble Hill condo building drives neighbors crazy, amasses violations
A new luxury condo building in Cobble Hill, being marketed as 5 River Park, is not only driving neighbors crazy with its “screeching noises” at all hours. Now it is under a partial Stop Work Order for numerous violations.
Due to high winds coming off the harbor, which previously sailed quietly over the air rights of historic brownstones, balconies on the upper floors of the new building are making a disturbing racket that is getting on the nerves of locals as far away as Brooklyn Heights.
Some are calling the building, at 347 Henry Street, the “whistling condo.” But whistling is too nice a name, Amanda Sue Nichols, second vice president of the Cobble Hill Association told the Brooklyn Eagle.
