What you are looking at is the rapid progress being made on 525 Union Avenue, the luxury condo going up behind Our Lady of Mount Carmel, the Giglio church on Havemeyer Street in Williamsburg. One of the reasons that the building has gone up so quickly is that there had been a great deal of Sunday work on the site, which as we noted (and videotaped), was making a nasty racket for parishioners during mass. We’re glad to report though that ever since our posts and the WNBC news crew that showed up one Sunday, all has been quiet. And progress on the building still seems fast.
