Brooklyn’s favorite somewhat toxic playground is open to the public again. The flimsy fence at the Whole Foods site on Third Street has been opened up again by vandals. We stopped by on Saturday and a curious people were taking tours of the site over the weekend. Will it be “repaired” quickly, or will the site be left open again for days, if not weeks? Will a lot more cool photos be posted on flickr?

Oh my the false hope this story is trying to put out there to warm the cold hearts of those developers, and just in time for Valentines.
The DOB has not approved the architectural plans for this site. DOB has approved shoring and underpinning only. Whole Foods hasn’t yet passed on their zoning and building code.
