Commercial space available for rent at 117 2nd Ave.



A for rent banner arrived this week in the second-floor window at 117 Second Ave., in the vacant space above San Marzano at East Seventh Street.

We didn't find any information about the space online. (The phone number is for AAG Management, Inc., who oversees a handful of East Village properties.)

The building is owned by Maria Hrynenko, the landlord of 121 Second Ave., the site of the deadly gas explosion on March 26. Hrynenko has not been accused of any wrongdoing by authorities, according to the Times. The district attorney's office is investigating the explosion, which may have occurred after workers improperly tapped a gas line at 121 Second Ave.

time to seize her buildings AND charge this landlord for the crimes she committed - and get on with helping the displaced tenants (residential and commercial) restore their lives.

This looks like a fairly tasteful change that is consistent with the existing structure. However, don't these changes violate the landmark restrictions? Including the changes to the ground floor?

Marcos - I remember reading about this on Grieve a while ago. This building did go in front of the landmarks commission. http://www.nyc.gov/html/mancb3/downloads/calendar/2013/117%20Second%20Ave%202nd%20Floor%20Facade%20Renovation.pdf
