The 6-floor residential building rising on the NE corner of Sixth Street and Avenue C is in its unglamorous cinderblock phase as work continues ...
As previously reported, the residential building will include 11 units, a storefront and space for an unspecified community facility on this long-vacant corner. (A gas station was the last tenant here in the 1980s.)
The plywood rendering has not been updated, and still lists a fall 2022 completion date...

Soooooo ugly.
This is one site that will perhaps be improved by having housing and something functional there. That is not a comment I would apply to many developments.
I hope some of these apartments will be afforded to those with low to moderate incomes.
Disappointing that they can't build higher on the rare occasion when more housing is created.
Taller Towers, Fewer Homes
New boutique condo towers, some with fewer apartments than the buildings they replace, are squandering high-density sites in Manhattan, urban planners say.

Hey, 4:30pm that's a fine issue to focus on but not what is going on here. This is a long vacant lot so any additional housing here is a net positive.
Another Lego-like building.
