Forgotten New York

OVINGTON MYSTERY, Brooklyn

I passed the mystery house of Bay Ridge, 457 Ovington, between 4th and 5th the other day, and it is as immutable as ever. The blinds are still lowered, the paint has chipped just a bit more than when I passed it by in 2007, and it seems as uninhabited as it did when I lived in the area between 1982-1990. Word came to me in ’07  that someone did indeed live here, but as ever, the edifice gives no indication that anyone does.
