The trend of every empty space in Brooklyn being built upon continues. 324 Macon Street, between Marcus Garvey and Lewis, once upon a time was one of a row of historic brownstones. The block is part of the Bedford-Stuyvesant/Expanded Stuyvesant Heights landmark district. The building, built around 1889, was torn down around 1967.
Plans have been filed to build on the empty lot. Unlike many parts of Brooklyn where there is no landmark protection, here the project must actually fit in architecturally with the surrounding properties. That's good news for this historic block and the residents in the neighborhod.
