Former 9th Street garage demolished to make way for luxury residences

After more than two months, workers have completed the demolition of the former Little Man Parking garage (aka LaSalle Parking) on Ninth Street between Second Avenue and Third Avenue.
The DOB permits list a "partial demolition" of the existing 5-story structure. We don't see much left of anything.

Per previous reports, the new 6-floor building will include 31,231 square feet of residential space, including 18 units and likely condos. Amenities include a rear yard and parking for 10 vehicles. Colberg Architecture is the architect of record. The plywood rendering lists a completion date of Winter 2026. 

According to public records and the TradedNY account, Arcus Development, operating through Astor Nine LLC, is the new owner of the vacant property. 

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.

  2. I'm so glad this thing has finally been leveled. For the past few weeks it's been like living next to constant mortar shelling eight hours a day.

  3. Finally, more luxury housing. Just what the neighborhood ordered.
