Photos: in-progress Brooklyn Basketball training facility at old Modell's site opposite Barclays. Coming: an illuminated sign and illuminated walls. Opens Sept. 25.
The new Brooklyn Basketball youth training facility at the former Modell's site at Site 5, on Flatbush Avenue opposite the arena block, is due to open on Sept. 25, in little more than two weeks, according to parent company BSE Global.
A neighbor sent me some photos taken yesterday of exterior and interior work. Well, they have the seafoam green exterior accent that represents the WNBA's New York Liberty, but the rest of the project seems very much in process.
Can they make the deadline? Well, they had an after-hours variance (search the Department of Buildings site for 140 Flatbush Avenue) to work from 9 am to 5 pm this past Saturday, and have another one in place for this Saturday, Sept. 13. Presumably they'll get more if needed.
Note: coming, according to work plans, are an illuminated ground sign and exterior illuminated walls.
