Construction watch: 183 Avenue B

Here's a look at the in-progress, all-new 183 Avenue B between 11th Street and 12th Street.

As we've noted, this 8-floor, 12-unit residential building is going as the Village Garden Condominium.

The Village Garden website states that "all units are flooded by natural light. Lower floors provide views of the beautiful historic buildings of the Lower East Side; upper floors afford sweeping views of the neighborhood and Tompkins Square Park ... The two full-floor penthouse units include two terraces, perfect for inviting friends or a romantic evening. The delight of your private outdoor space can be appreciated during the morning sunrise or in the evening with a glass of wine." 

Amenities include a fitness room and the opportunity to buy one of six individual garden spaces in the back of the building. Pricing has not been announced. 

Here's the plywood rendering...
In January 2017, Corcoran listed the property at an asking price of $4.75 million. According to public records, the building—with intact air rights—sold for that exact amount in April 2017. The DOB permit lists Richard Pino as the owner via Tompkins 183 LLC. 

The existing four-story building was later demolished on this lot in early 2020. 

A December 2024 completion date remains on the plywood rendering.
