Sales began yesterday for 75 First Ave., the current foundation in the ground next to the Rite Aid at Fifth Street.
One day, it will be an 8-floor, 22-unit building like the rendering above.
Here's the official blurbage about the address:
Introducing 75 First Avenue, the brain-child of Italian design impresario and Peter Marino protégé Stefano Pasqualetti, and Starchitect Thomas O’Hara. The glass façade of this luxury condominium rises and cantilevers over the heart of the East Village. Amenities include a full-time doorman, a landscaped rooftop deck with panoramic city views, a fitness center, bicycle storage, and a private lounge with a yellow travertine fireplace, pool table, and wet bar for parties and events. 75 First Avenue is located only a few blocks from SoHo, the Lower East Side and the Bowery, and surrounded by an eclectic mix of restaurants, bars, cafes, theaters, shops, and grocery stores. Nearby subway lines include the F and 6.
There are currently five units for sale via Nest Seekers International ... from $995,000 to $2.25 million.
Here are some renderings via Nest Seekers...
Plans here have evolved through the past 10 years here with various developers and architects.

looking forward to the marketing strategy by nestseekers on this one, the wrinkley banner they put up on the poppy lofts on B next to Mamas was a masterstroke.. when i want to spend $2mm, i want to see a f****** wrinkley banner, baby!
I always wanted to live above a Rite Aid ...How do I sign up?
I like how the Rite-Aid doesn't have any logos in the rendering. Looks less garish and upscale.
'Starchitect'? WTF!!!
my sides finally stopped hurting after reading the developer babble, Starchitect almost made we wet my pants. We can only assume those building this fish tank haver purchased the air rights from the Rite Aid building therefore nothing above one floor will ever be built on that lot. I hope the saps that sold those rights go paid big time.
"The glass façade of this luxury condominium rises and cantilevers over the heart of the East Village."

The bigger problem is the Bike Lane. I would take 100 more overpriced condoes if they would regulate or BAN the bike lane.
Only in NYC kids. You gotta love this BS.
2 bedroomd are Under 1,000 sq ft and about $2,000,000. I am sorry this is not SoHo, West Village, TriBECa.
