Like many others in the community, I'm not too keen on the Grand Prospect Hall's hotel plans. The Park Slope Patch, covering the story, quotes the response of a nearby resident to the project:
"Our apartments all face the back of Grand Prospect Hall, and we’re going to be faced with a lack of light and a lack of privacy,” said Diana Mora, the President of the condo board at Suite Sixteen Condominiums at 200 16th Street.
Yes, lack of light and privacy is a very serious issue, as those of us who live in the shadows of ugly condo buildings know only too well. We miss the sun and the views.
