... and a reader notes that workers are hoisting some solar panels or something to buildings atop East 12th Street between A and B this morning... You always take pictures of cranes...

"Are these the 10 best restaurants on the LES?"
ReplyDeleteKiller comment.
"Ten Best LES restaurants for the newbie transplant gentrifiers according to a newbie transplant."
That "LES to Madison Ave" story is a bit exploitative. The shop was on Clinton, the priciest block (or one of them) in the LES for commercial rents.
ReplyDeleteAre you positive those aren't lunar panels? That's the next big thing yo.
ReplyDeletePer a note distributed to residents this past week, 504-508 E. 12th (where the crane in the picture is being used) has been sold yet again--fourth time in 10 years--this time to a company called Kadima Management. No idea if any other buildings changed hands as part of the deal.
ReplyDelete504-508 isn't getting solar panels, it's down the street. The sale was a shifting of owners in the group, nothing has changed for the tenants, its still westminster, still Kushner, same super, same address for the rent in florham park nj.
