A Building residents forced to use the service entrance

The lobby of the infamous A Building on 13th Street between Avenue A and First Avenue is finally getting that much needed makeover...



Oh, wait, the building with the rooftop pool and cabanas and hard-partying flip-cup crowd is less than two years old. Hmm. Maybe those Pietra Bedonia stone walls in the lobby needed some buffing?




Oh, and the $2.3 million penthouse is still on the market...there was an open house yesterday on the unit being being flipped for some $300,000 over the original value...

I watched them "build" this place, and I wouldn't spend $10,000 to buy an apartment here. The outside of the building isn't even properly finished. I wouldn't be surprised to hear the tenants have all sorts of issues with plumbing, etc.

I heard the buyers were suing the builders over their shoddy work. Perhaps this is the result.

They took it out on the lobby?

Instead of fixing the structural problems, they figured a makeover of the lobby would lull them into complacency.
