'Tis the season for coming back from the dead ... Let's see, we mentioned 401 E. Eighth St. yesterday ... and 75 First Ave. earlier this summer.
Now! That long-dormant pit also-known-as 427. E. 12th St. across from the East Side Community School is primed for a six-story, 11-unit residence designed by Montreal-based architect Karl Fischer, who is behind several overly luxurious condos on the Bowery.

these buildings are extremely fugly and i truly wish this person was not building them in my beautiful, pre-war, low-rise, brick and mortar hood.
ReplyDeleteThat East Village Historic District can't come fast enough. Maybe hot Karl is in cohoots with angry churches.
