So, we were walking in Greenpoint north of McCarren Park when we saw a very familiar piece of machinery standing tall over the local buildings. It turns out the big thing that bangs North Brooklyn was on the scene. Specifically, our friend the prodigious Empire Pile Driver, which torments people all over Greenpoint and Williamsburg with the incessant sounds of its banging. Right now, it’s doing its thing at 122 Newton Street in what we like to call The Tahoe Triangle because of the number of buildings being put up there by Tahoe Development’s. In fact, our friend is banging away so that yet another Tahoe building can rise. This one will be a five story companion to its friends on the left and right and up the street.
