On May 17th of this year we posted a blog on the popularity of residential real estate in the Brooklyn neighborhood of Bedford Stuyvesant with young home seekers and renters. As a result of this trend Commercial real estate in Bedford Stuyvesant has become very attractive to real estate investors and developers who want to accommodate newcomers to this neighborhood. Weissman Equities has just purchased 426 Bainbridge Street, a mixed use building where renovations will soon be under way. The retail mix for this Bainbridge Street property has not been decided yet.
