Bloomberg reports that Packer Collegiate Institute, the 170 year old private primary and secondary school located at Joralemon and Clinton streets, plans to issue $22 million in tax exempt 30 year bonds to be used to finance the acquisition and renovation of property at 100 Clinton Street. The building, which is at the northwest corner of Clinton and Remsen and now houses medical offices, will be used for Packer’s preschool and kindergarten programs.

    Who said it was a problem?

    100 Clinton is on the NW corner of Clinton and Remsen, not Clinton and Joralemon.

    Wait wait wait. North WEST??? I thought the west side of Clinton is part of Landmarks. Anyhow, on the NW corner of Clinton and Remsen is a large apartment building (150 Remsen).

    Sorry, Maggie. You’re right, and I’ve corrected the post.

    150, being an even number,would have to be on the south side of Remsen; ergo, it’s on the SW corner.

    Thus my gastroenterologist, Dr. Rezk, has been forced to move his offices to some other location.

    Packer’s new digs will have a children’s playground on the roof, so expect the sound of high, piping voices to echo down the streets in future. Not sure if the people in the surrounding apartments (including those in the former Franklin Trust building next door) are expecting that.
