A tipster randomly spotted this ranch-style home on Pulaski Street in Bed-Stuy, just off Nostrand, and given that we are somewhat obsessed with suburban looking homes juxtaposed in NYC's urban neighborhoods, we thought we'd share. What is it doing there? According online records, it was built in 2000 and is owned by the Salvation Army, who may run it as an adult care facility.
If you spot any suburban-looking, or one-story homes looking out of place amongst skyscrapers and brownstones, please send us a photo and/or address.
Previously: A home on 5th Avenue and 48th Street, a cottage in Bushwick, John Barrymore's old house on a rooftop on West 4th Street, and this vinyl-sided rooftop house in Williamsburg.
