Broken Angel to go condo?

Broken Angel, the building-cum-sculpture project in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, that served as the backdrop for “Dave Chappelle’s Block Party” will likely go condo. The structure, which has a multitude of fanciful additions on its façde and interior, was found in violation of various codes in October, and its owners, who have added architectural details to it for the past few decades, were evicted. Owner Arthur Wood announced yesterday that he would dismantle the building’s 40-foot rooftop addition and that he has entered into a preliminary agreement with developer Shahn Andersen, who is expected to carve out condo units inside the edifice. more [NYT]
