Despite a lot of outreach and awareness by a variety of local politicians and preservations groups, the historic townhouses here between Avenue C and Avenue D continue their journey toward the luxury
Since we last looked, workers erected the sidewalk sheds...
And you can see right through now... not much is left inside. Workers have removed the guts.
However, the work on this block isn't limited to 326-328. There's also a sidewalk shed in front of 322.
According to a newly renewed work permit:
Interior renovation of existing apartments, including addition of one floor and penthouse; including structural, plumbing and mechanical work.

isn't luxury on avenue d an oxymoron?
Anyone who can seriously equate 'Avenue D' and 'luxury' has to be *some* kind of moron.
I'm sure these places will be sold with the view of the garden across the street as an amenity. Then, the owners will do their best to eradicate the neighborhood of the people who built said garden...
322 E. 4th St. is a real mystery. It has been sitting in a half-built for years with no sign of activity (other than squatters climbing into the basement at night). The scaffolding was put up several months ago after parts of the facade started falling off. I'd love to know what's going on with this property.
OMG!! I lived in 322 E 4th st, many years, until 2004 , what a shame.
I grew up in 322 East 4th Street. I lived there from 1973 until 1991. I don't understand how those buildings were allowed to be defaced and destroyed the way that they were. My mom had a book about the architectural history of NYC that said that those four structures, 322, 324, 326 and 328, were built in 1839. What was done there is criminal.
