Construction watch: 287 E. Houston St.



These photos are from Sunday. By now, there's likely another few floors.

Work has been zipping right along here at 287 E. Houston St. between Clinton and Suffolk... site of a planned 11 stories of condos...



The 120-foot-tall luxury building will feature 28 apartments. The development will have two to four apartments on each story, including two duplexes on the first and second floors and a penthouse duplex on the top two floors.

The condoplex's website shows seven available units, starting at $1.18 million for a 624-square-foot unit... and $2.95 million for the 1,100-square foot penthouse with an additional 140-square-feet of outdoor space.

AA Studio is the architect while HOGG Holdings and Vinci U.S. Real Estate are the developers. (Corcoran Group Marketing is heading up sales. And marketing.)

And as for the final product, we'll just drop this in...



The lot here previously housed a tax-preparation business; a landscaping business also shared part of the property.

    Something about this hideous grey monolith replacing a one floor structure for small businesses just defies the laws of physics and sanity.

    this and every rendition put out by these tech based architect firms looks about as natural as the big black object appearing in scenes in 2001 space odyssey.

    That exterior front-face amenity slide looks juuuuuust a bit steep.

    I used to live next door at 283. Now I just react and endure here. This town is fucked.
