Construction watch: 154 Second Avenue



Just a spot check on the progress at 154 Second Ave., the former Sigmund Schwartz Gramercy Park Chapel that will house luxury rentals and ground-floor retail between East Ninth Street and East 10th Street.

EVG reader Terry Howell provides another update from the building's backside.

"The back view looks pretty much like the front view. Can't see thru the netting for clearer idea of what's inside. Progress is slow but steady."





Still no word on what the concrete deck will be. (Can you technically have a rooftop rager on a party patio?)
