Construction watch: 179 Suffolk St.



The East Houston Street skyline is starting to change with the progress of the 10-story residential building going up on the corner of Suffolk Street… (as you can see someone has already tagged the top of the new building…)



According to the DOB … Plans show 11,522 square feet for residential use … and 2,527 square feet for community facility space.



And the rendering shows a godawful-looking ...



We're four-plus years in on this project, which has been plagued with various issues, as BoweryBoogie previously noted here.

    The rendering. Wow. That is quite suck.

    What seemingly-endless barrel are they scraping the bottom of to find these "architects" inflicting such endless hideousness on us? I could do better with an Etch-A-Sketch and a bottle of Scotch, for God's sake.

    Is that thing really an apartment building or is it a support tower for future space shuttle launches?
