Behind the scenes of the Pineapple Walk vote in Brooklyn Heights
UPDATE: Property values at 75 Henry St. zooming
Was a co-op’s vote to reject development on a valuable slice of Brooklyn Heights an example of civic altruism or healthy self-interest?
Maybe a bit of both, residents say.
Neighbors of 75 Henry St. in north Brooklyn Heights called it “miraculous” that the co-op, known as Whitman Owner Corp., voted “no” to a generous offer for Pineapple Walk.
