Construction watch: 11 Avenue C



After nearly four years of construction ... here's a look at how the 10-story 11 Avenue C (aka 350 E. Houston St.) is shaping up...

BLDG Management is the developer behind the project, which will feature 46 residential units and ground-floor retail. No word on pricing yet.

Foundation work began in December 2016 here on this lot that housed the neighborhood's last gas station. 

The well-worn plywood rendering lists a March 2018 completion date...


Architect of record Rotwein+Blake previously stated that "the narrow triangular site presented numerous challenges from its odd shape to zoning constraints."

  1. It's so strange how they seemed to be sprinting on this project through July and have slowed down again. Its also equally strange how there isn't more detail on the building/opening.

    Speaking of that, whats the story with the gut renos at 23 Avenue B next to Cornerstone?

  4. It's all about cheap materials. NYC buildings of the last 15 years will all fall apart by the end of this decade.
