1st look at the all-new 26 Avenue B



The scaffolding and construction netting came down at 26 Avenue B this past week... offering the first look at the new 7-unit, 6-floor residential building between Second Street and Third Street... (This space was once home to the Croxley Ales beer garden.)

We were curious what this would look like. The rendering on the plywood showed the building next door ...



Anyway, here it is...





Developer Natan Vinbaytel was also behind 227 E. Seventh St., which people seemed to like ... as well as 67 Avenue C, which is now sold out per a news release we received last week.

To date, we haven't seen any pricing for 26 Avenue B.

H/T Salim!

Is 26 Avenue B ready for its new building now?

  1. It might look better with a cornice on top. Too bad no one does architectural details any more.

  3. That went up fast. The lot was empty for so long due to the damage to the building to the North. Then "bam" a building.

  4. Yeah not the worst. The casement windows don't seem very natural.. can't put my finger on it, maybe it is the product stickers still all over them on the inside.

  5. May look good, but quickly built for cheap don't last.
