A couple years ago some uninformed owners of new condos complained about this local chicken slaughterhouse, which was kind of funny. But, now there’s going to be a protest next week at Greenpoint Avenue’s famous “Live Poultry Slaughter” by local and national activists. (BK Eagle)

But the slaughter house moved out already, like a few months ago
I also heard this from Good Yoga, who moved in next store and said that the slaughterhouse was a deal breaker but since it’s gone they moved in…
They definitely slaughter chickens nearby because they clean the trucks over by 67 West St. The other day I saw the saddest and most confused chicken walking around. An escapee but before I could get it, it disappeared. Not like I know what I would have done with it anyway.
Its a shame the slaughterhouse is gone. We’ve been living with it since I was a kid and can’t believe that people moving into the neighborhood have to protest about it. Gee, didn’t anyone see the sign when they moved next door? I almost purchased one of the apts in question and that was not a deal breaker. We had other reasons for not moving in.
not a shame for the chickens, maria! 😉
you have to admit the odor is pretty terrible?
