[EVG photo from January]

Well, you know, a 13-story, 30,000 square-foot mixed-use residential development is in the works for 347 Bowery.

And someone, likely just a cheap Penistrator knockoff, saw fit to degrade the renderings on the plywood here at East Third Street by drawing a large [redacted].

Thankfully workers had painted over the offending doodle before any more harm could be done...



Previously on EV Grieve:
The Salvation Army's former East Village Residence will be demolished on the Bowery

Looks like 347 Bowery will be home to a 13-floor mixed-use residential development

The future of 347 Bowery (sorta!) revealed

I think this improves the design ten fold.

It's almost as if someone was trying to discern some hidden significance in this upright tower being erected from the swell of activity below, thrusting upward and inserting itself into the skyline of the EV, filling the developer with pride until he could burst. But what could it mean? I can't grasp something this big.
