Kodachrome Give Us Those Nice Bright Colors
By The Changeling | May 30, 2007
Kodachrome Building, Bed-Stuy
Awhile back I photographed this building on Spencer street and it seemed like just another new building in the neighborhood. But when I passed by the development today I got a special treat. What was once a nondescript building is now Spencer’s Amazing Technicolor Dreambuilding! What a difference a couple of weeks can make!
With the addition of this development, Spencer Street is damn-near magical! I’m going to start calling this the Kodachrome Building.

They give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers

I love the colors.
What is it? Condos? How about the one across the street. On the corner empty lot (myrtle/willby) they were jackhammering the sidewalk yesterday for what looks to be holes for construction fencing. They have a back hoe in the lot now too so it looks like they are going to start digging.
That whole intersection has just exploded!

I absolutely loathe these condos. they are the worst in the area. I live across the street from these and I am forced to see them every day. It looks like a giant day care center. Which when you consider who will be moving in I guess it is kind of fitting.
