Park Slope residents are saddened that a de facto brothel, a "by the hour" hotel, is being developed into expensive condos.

When it was an hourly rate hotel, "it was a dingy place, yes, but added a colorful" aspect to the neighborhood, said Lincoln Place resident Joshua Brown. Like others, Brown said he was sorry to see it transformed into condos that would help raise housing prices throughout the neighborhood.

Can't figure these Slopers out. The local blacks are too loud, but the dainty neighborhood hookers trigger nostalgia? Related! The bodega that sells porn just closed and someone's daughter just lost a pair of Crocs on 5th Ave.—won't you please do something?
