Last week, we noted that workers have completed the demolition of the former Little Man Parking garage (aka LaSalle Parking) at 220 E. Ninth St. between Second Avenue and Third Avenue.
Now, more details are available about what's to come — an 18-unit luxury condoplex "blending classic Downtown loft architecture and industrial-chic details with modern luxury."
Representatives for Arcus, the designer-developer whose past projects include 150 Wooster and The Wythe Lane Townhouses, shared photos and details of 220e9th.
The homes range from one to four bedrooms, and seven of the residences will have terraces. There will also be three penthouses.
Amenities included a 24-hour attended lobby, sauna, fitness center with Pilates studio, pet grooming station, and Japanese-style garden.
Here's a website for more info... sales start this fall.
The garage closed in April 2023 after the Department of Buildings issued a vacate order on the property following the deadly collapse at the Little Man garage on Ann Street in the Financial District.
Per the DOB vacate order: "The occupied parking structure with concrete framing observed to be in a state of disrepair at several locations in cellar level... crushed column base observed at several locations in cellar level ... vertical cracks observed inside elevator shaft and on masonry walls."
The address was offered as a "redevelopment project" in August 2023.
Budget Car Rental and Tori-Bien, a restaurant that specialized in Japanese fried chicken, were also forced to leave their retail spaces at this address.
Thanks swells, I hate it.
ReplyDeleteThis looks beautiful. If only this was bigger and had some more apartments
ReplyDeleteGlad to see more masonry buildings taking the city back from the glass bohemoths.
ReplyDeleteI like that they're using brick. But I also wish it didn't have that garage and instead had street level retail. I realize we're not losing any in this situation, but damn 9th street has great retail still. We really need some sort of intervention regarding the empty storefronts and the astronomical rent prices - ok so now that's a pivot away from the building lol.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so much better than the average glass tower
Faux factory stye says "loft livening without artists neighbors which might make you question things like, where would you be without your trust fund?"
ReplyDeleteIck. More rich people coming to our neighborhood, but so it goes now with NYC. Wish something could change that. Hopefully, Zorhan can make it more affordable for low income and middle class to live here also (assuming he gets elected), but I know this kind of change is difficult to bring about. I'm lucky because I have a rent stabilized apartment, but few do.
