On St. Mark's Place, sidewalk emerges after lengthy construction stint

Photo by Jacob Ford 

On the NE corner of St. Mark's Place and Third Avenue, workers have pushed the barricades closer to the new 9-story building ... allowing use of the sidewalk again for the first time in five-plus years

Pre-leasing is underway for the boutique office building, which includes 7,700 square feet of retail space.

The return of the sidewalk might mean the end of this from the sidewalk bridge and construction zone era.

If they get rid of this ugly building there will be even more space to walk

I saw Carpet Guy on Park Ave S at 29th St just the other day! (I walked around him lol)

Are you referring to Kevin Carpet, the guy who likes to be walked on?

Good to know Kev is still around. I miss him!

Now, if we could just get rid of the scaffolding entombing the several thousand buildings on this island world of ours, we might actually have a more enjoyable city to live in.

OH I think carpet guy was possibly at Broadway ~10-11th on Weds evening, perpendicular to the barriers. I didn't think much of it until two other guys said "you think he's in there?"
