I have lived in Brooklyn for a few years, it's largely the same here. A while back there was a proposal to build a large apartment building in my neighborhood, which at the time did not have any tall buildings. Locals tried to stop it, literally putting "No Towers" signs in their windows and on their doors. Thankfully they were not successful, so the neighborhood will soon be able to support hundreds of more people.

It depends on the part of Brooklyn. Downtown, Williamsburg, and Greenpoint are all seeing significant new units added. After lagging behind for a long time, things are finally starting to happen in Brooklyn Heights. Park Slope is mostly stangnet, but out on fourth avenue (I guess that's called Gowanus?) new units are going up. There is still plenty of Brooklyn that is stagnant, it's a very large boro, but the overall picture is decent.
