[Updated] How much for this new-to-market home on 1st Avenue?



This arrived on the market this morning on First Avenue at East 12th Street...



Details are scarce. However, as you can tell, this coveted location offers easy access to public crosstown/uptown transportation and the First Avenue bike lane. Close to some of the neighborhood's best restaurants, shops, schools and bone broth.

What are you willing to pay for the chance to live here? (And don't be put off by the small size!)



1 p.m.

This is a project called #smokersnyc via photographer Mark Reigelman II ... taking this around the city and putting it over manhole covers to make it look like the chimney is in use...

  1. I saw a few guys unloading this from a trailer this morning, sliding it right into this spot and then high-fiving. I figured at least one side would be open, selling something or other, but it looks solid as a rock. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  5. I really dont understand why there aren't more people sleeping in their cars. Or making living spaces look like cars so they can sleep in them.

  11. Yay! Somebody doing something creative!!
    I have just moved from my 9th St. place with a patio... So I will not be gracing the neighborhood with my annual Festivus pole. Will somebody please put one up in my absence?
