A Delancey update (with special appearances by Jesus and Bloomy, or at least someone named Mike)

Back in August, BoweryBoogie broke the news that hotelier Sam Chang bought the parcel of buildings at 148-154 Delancey for $15.75 million. (Finally, the hotel this area so desperately needs!)

Haven't been down this stretch for a few months...So I was expecting the worst...though...it looks exactly like it did last summer...Which isn't great, but....







For how long, though...Meanwhile! Bloomy, we assume....?



And directly across the street...

    That part of Delancey is nasty. Sam Chang hotel sucks, but I will not miss those little shitboxes one bit. Lest people fear that Delancey will overgentrify, it just wont happen. Too many projects too close.
