Plywood arrives at East 3rd Street lot, site of incoming 6-floor apartment building



Workers have put up plywood outside the fence at 321 E. Third St. between Avenue C and Avenue D … where there are approved plans for a 6-story, 30-unit apartment complex …



Perhaps some work is imminent at this long-vacant lot, which has been home to an encampment of casitas as well as an annex for the Orchard Alley Community Garden. Queens-based Venetian Management LLC is listed as the owner on DOB records. Gerald J. Caliendo is listed at the architect of record.

Directly across the street at 316-318 is the construction of the Karl Fischer-designed, 33-unit apartment building.

  1. They've checked the Flood Hazard line "no". That is wrong.

  2. I live next door. This block is actually not in a FEMA flood zone and did not flood at all during Sandy. It is more elevated than blocks to the north and east and is in NYC zone C.
