Generally Speaking: Bay Ridge loses another big store
A massive commercial property on the corner of Fort Hamilton Parkway and 86th Street is for sale or lease. This site has seen several iterations of large-scale furniture stores, including Seaman’s, Ashley, Jennifer Convertibles and, more recently, Jennifer Furniture Clearance Center.
Further along 86th Street is a new vacant lot that many years ago housed Blockbuster Video, and across Battery Avenue is the property that someday may be the site of a public middle school. When we stopped by this site, the old Nathan’s building was still standing and we saw a sign indicating asbestos abatement was taking place.
