Developer Resumes Building at 185 Ocean

Brownstoner tells us that 185 Ocean Avenue--the giant hole in the ground where PlanetPLG HQ used to be--is back in action.

[A] check of DOB records shows that the site passed an audit in December and was reissued a New Building permit early last month. The permit's for a 22,000-square-foot, eight-story residential building. Should fit in nicely next to the recently landmarked Ocean on the Park Historic District.

Rumor has it that Henry Herbst is still planning to resume building his gigantic tower on Lincoln Road in the next couple of years as well (at least, that's what he's been telling people). We'll see....
