87 1st Ave. is for sale

There's a new listing for the sale of the 16-unit 87 First Ave. between Fifth Street and Sixth Street. 

The listing notes that the property "offers an exceptional investment opportunity in one of New York City’s most vibrant and sought-after neighborhoods" and "enjoys convenient access to premier dining, shopping, entertainment, and cultural destinations." 

Asking price: $7.499 million. 

There's no mention of the retail space, home for years to the Blue Door Video... where it's more difficult to window shop with the constant tagging here...
EVG's Stacie Joy documented the main floor of the business in this 2022 post

It's difficult to imagine someone purchasing the building as an investment and keeping the Blue Door as a tenant. We'll see! 

Also, as previously noted, a new development is in the works (still) in the empty lot next door to No. 87.
