We noticed the stop work order on Thursday evening over at East Houston and Elizabeth, where a 2-story building is in the works for the former Billy's Antiques space.
We were waiting for the violations to be posted online. That hasn't happened yet.
Apparently the excavation/foundation is having an "influence" on the adjoining property, per the sign...
We'll update this post as soon as the infractions are online.
Meanwhile! Someone placed some Billy's Antiques stickers on the renderings...
Perhaps some wishful thinking. It was certainly a lot more fun with Billy Leroy here. Anyway, he hasn't 100-percent ruled out a return, as far as we know...
The bar that the building butts up against also owns a construction co., eurostruct, responsible for David Swimmers e.6 st. Building.They are losing biz, from construction. There.'really looking to buy building once owner dies!! Ouch
ReplyDeleteFor Billy's to return It would have to be a good deal and I doubt Goldman Properties would give him a "good deal" but if they did I'm sure Billy would jump on it!.
ReplyDeleteThe truth is that they are going to build the city's first outdoor public toilets for tourists on this site. Glass enclosed, so French people and similar eurotrash can get off on the visile bathrooming. They will be pay toilets - how much would you pay to poop in NYC?
ReplyDeleteSeems like a strange idea to me.
I live on Elizabeth and have also heard about this glass "outdoor bathroom" plan - not sure if this is a novel public service or simply a bizarre money making scheme. I get it though, there are those occasional "emergency moments" I would gladly pay for a bathroom. Not sure I'd want to do it behind glass where tourists can watch me however. Or take photos? Weird.
