However! The property is now on the Massey Knakal site for $2,350,000. According to the description:
A 23' wide, 3,450 square foot, 2 story building located on Avenue C ... R7A zoning provides for approximately 4,186 buildable square feet of additional air rights. The ground floor features extremely high ceilings, exposed brick and will be delivered vacant. The second floor is occupied by a bar paying an under market rent of $500/month that expires in 2015. This prime East Village location stands out as a rare opportunity for users, investors and developers.
What bar is on the 2nd floor? I think this can only be answered by your keen investigative skills.
