Getting rid of the rats at the former LaVie ahead of a new 6-floor residential building



Demolition work continues at 64 E. First St., the former home of neighborhood scourge LaVie, which closed for good last June after a protracted battle with the SLA.

Workers are now bombing the rats.



And what comes after the demolition? Permits filed on April 29 show a 6-floor residential building in the making here between First Avenue and Second Avenue.

New York Yimby, who first reported on the new building, points out that there will be six residential units (likely condos) — "two duplexes, one spanning the cellar and first floor, and another located on the sixth and penthouse levels; each of the other four residences will be full-floor."

DOB permits show that Ekstein Development is behind the project.
