At long last, a partial reveal at 619 E. 6th St.

Last week workers finally removed the scaffolding and construction netting from 619 E. Sixth St., where a 6-story residence has been in the works these past four-plus years here between Avenue B and Avenue C.

As a reminder of what's in the works via DXA Studio Architecture, the architects of record:

The facade is clad in a Danish handmade brick and includes a full width mural along a sidewall that links the building in character with its East Village neighbors where street art abounds. The five residential units, from a small studio up to a dramatic three bedroom with office and double height duplex on the top floors, incorporate a simple and timeless palette of materials throughout.

And...

We first heard about this project in January 2016. It has seemingly taken a long time to knock down the previous one-level structure on the property and get to this point. 

Residents on the block had previously expressed their annoyance by the roadway dividers and temporary walkway, which became a popular spot to use as a toilet.
