Steiner East Village wooing L train Steinhangers



Developer Douglas Steiner has unveiled an ad campaign at the L train stop on Third Avenue and 14th Street for his residences — aka Steiner East Village ...



The 7-story, 82-unit building at 438 E. 12th St. features homes starting at $1.1 million... with the 4-bedroom penthouse with 1,364 square feet of terraces that's asking $11.25 million. Something nice to think about while pondering which L train shutdown scenario MTA officials will choose...



Meanwhile, forgot to note that the 438-branded astroturf arrived on the corner of Avenue A and 11th Street a few weeks back...

  1. No subway signage needed to make people aware of Steiner condos- just cock an ear every Saturday they've banging away even when their permit didn't permit anything but quiet interior work. No rules apply when developers rule. Who's going to be able to afford to live here? Nobody you know.

  3. "Finally a use for the Third Avenue L train stop.""

    I kind of dig the Third Ave L stop because it is rather quiet.

  4. People who can afford $11 million condos don't take the train; only the "little people" take the train.

  6. I wonder if all the millions they are making on these ugly condos will afford the developers the cash to fix the curbing they completely busted on the south side of the corner of 11th Street and A? And I've seen the workers pouring concrete-laden water down the sewers, which now seem very slow-moving during a storm. The developments need to be accountable for street damage.

  7. 6:08 PM: Next time take some pictures of them pouring concrete down the sewers. Report it to the DOB or 311. I don't know that anything will be done, but at least there will be a record...
