Just popping onto flatbushgardens.net to see if any changes were made.
I noticed the rent scale is back down to what it was when I moved in.
Perhaps the new scale reported earlier (http://flatbushnyc.blogspot.com/2008/12/rent-increase-alert.html) was a mistake, or perhaps more likely, they couldn't move enough units at the new prices. No idea, but as of now, the rent scale is back to (875, 1025, 1200, and 1395).

A request from MM
FlatbushNYC reader MM writes:
I am starting a personal photography project of environmental portraits entitled "The Flatbush Project". At this time, I'm only in need of people that live in the Flatbush Gardens housing development. When the project is complete, I am hoping to get it in a gallery show as well as published. You do not need to be a professional model or look like one. People of all ages, shapes, sizes welcome. Here's the definition of environmental portrait:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_portrait The concept is that this complex is formerly bad public housing and since it has been recently bought by private developers, I want to document the people that have been here since it was public housing as well as the new people that have arrived. I currently live here. You will not be paid for participating but you will receive either a cd of your images or a print of your choice. You will have to sign a model release. If you want to participate, I would like to visit you in your home and have a brief interview first before I come back later to photograph you. If you are interested in participating, I will send you a link to my website along with links to samples of the style of photography I'm planning on doing. Please include some info about yourself. If you don't live in the complex, but know someone who does, please pass this along.
Thanks for looking!
