Rivera Suites Dumpsters Removed

Since the initial demolition of the Bay Club property in November 2006, the dumpsters were filled but never removed to make room for the Rivera Suites. They were recently removed on August 11th

Also the property has some recent complaints including

You know what came of those complains? Nothing! Why? becuase the Buildings Department as of August 10th cant find the address.

Rivera Suites: Winning our Hearts and Minds with Overgrown Weeds

Remember what used to be the Bay Club, which used to be next to Fun Time USA? Well now its the Rivera Suites next to Storage USA.

The property looks like its stalled in whatever construction it was doing and with the summer approaching fast, the weeds around the property are only going to get higher. They should take care of this, so people can walk down the street.
There has been a tremendous battle over this property and its development. You would think that they would keep the property secure, and the outside tidy. The lot has been this way, with filled dumpsters for weeks.

Riviera Suites at Sheepshead Bay..errr Gerritsen Beach?

The Bay Club is officially no more. It is now named Riviera Suites.

From the conceptual drawing it looks like it could fit in the neighborhood. Its not a huge structure. It looks a little taller than what the Bay Club was. I can also see a Boat Yard/Dock. If that dock is private you can expect the price of each unit to be very expensive. If not then we will see.

“The Riviera® Suites at Sheepshead Bay is a new 18 unit, loft style apartment building offering a relaxing oasis to enjoy this dynamic area. “

Bay Club Completely Demolished

Its completely demolished. I took a walk inside because of a huge gaping hole in the fence.

Come to think of it. I didn’t see any DOB permits(dept. of Buildings work permits).

That could be bad for whoever did the work.

Update #1: They have the permits. Link to DOB
