  1. Please pardon me for using your space: Work with money.

  2. Technically speaking, 70 Schermerhorn is located in Downtown Brooklyn i/o Brooklyn Heights. It has been happened lately that new developments on the outer areas of DoBro try to brand themselves as part of Brooklyn Heights on the west and as part of Boerum Hill (like the Nevins on Schermerhorn) on the south side. Downtown Brooklyn is becoming a great neighborhood and this is a misleading marketing tactic. It’s about time for everyone who lives or who wants to live in DoBro to start accepting that they are part of it.

  3. Sorry, but you, or the developer, is playing fast and loose with neighborhood geography here. 70 Schermerhorn is EAST of Court Street. That means it’s in Downtown Brooklyn, NOT Brooklyn Heights.
