A look at the all-new 101 E. 10th St.

A new for-lease sign went up yesterday at 101 E. 10th St., the now-taller residential building on the northeast corner of Third Avenue.

The newish building has been undergoing a four-story addition exterior renovation in recent years... it was only recently unveiled from behind the sidewalk bridge and construction netting...



The helpful arrows highlight the new portion of the building...



The new units are on the market for starting at $4,500 (one bedroom) to $10,000 for the two-bedroom penthouse with private terrace, per the listings.

A little recent history of the corner... the building was converted into luxury rentals in 2015 ...

SVA used the sixth-floor building as a dorm until the spring of 2014.

Prior to construction of the dorm, the address housed Bendiner & Schlesinger blood labs, which was demolished in 2005.

Could there be a more boring building in the world? I don't think so!

Not affordable. Carpetbaggerland.

Ghastly.

The exterior of the lab was used in that Seinfeld episode with the frozen yogurt and a pre-Gollum Rudy Giuliani.

The only reason to live there would be that you wouldn't have to look at it. And really, $4,500 for a 1 bedroom? The tech bro's must be very, very gullible.

A hundred years ago, my grandfather sold chemicals to Bendiner & Schlesinger from his storefront on 10th between 3rd and 4th Avenues.

Someone probably got paid more than I'll make my entire working life to "design" that blocky addition to an already hideous cube. SMH.

Did you ever meet ol' wall-eyed "Duke" Schlesinger? I did.
