Whole Foods has promised to preserve the creepy Coignet Stone Company building at the edge of its Gowanus lot when it builds its upcoming Brooklyn store.

Needless to say, preservationists aren't thrilled about this, and we don't think rooftop-grown veggies will make anybody feel better. [Gothamist; previously]
