Your East Village demolition progress report!

First, 51 Astor Place... where we will soon be able to enjoy a Fumihiko Maki-designed 430,000-square-foot Death Star office building...

And then over at 9-17 Second Ave. ... doesn't appear as if the full-on demolition has started... workers seem to still be focusing on 9 Second Avenue (aka 7 1/2 Second Ave.) ... soon all to vanish to make way for a 12-story apartment building...
