It was a fine block of shopping, once having a Woolworths, supermarket, bakery, bar, drug dealers posing as video rentals and other services for the neighborhood without adding hundreds more NYU students. Imagine Associated with more people. There used to be 2 supermarkets serving fewer people, now only one to make way for more chain stores and Wall Street drones. These stores served stuy town, and the north east village for decades. Why does every square inch have to be a hideous glass and plastic Ikea building?<br /><br />Here is my grand idea that would satisfy all: new brownstone houses built in that style for the billionaire class. No new houses have been built in manhattan that I know of, and I think they would pay a ton for a new private house. With parking. 4 floors, one house per family. It would enhance any developer's portfolio.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04362859175287085919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-425753766723512112013-10-20T10:39:40.827-04:002013-10-20T10:39:40.827-04:00Is this block of banality going to sit empty for y...Is this block of banality going to sit empty for years the way Avalon has? The way the Sculpture of Failure in Astor Place has? The city has a problem with affordable housing, not housing. And let's not forget they are building it right across the street from an apartment complex with 11k + apartments. <br /><br />The pizza place, hair salon, pet store, Rainbow, Rite-Aid and other businesses served the neighborhood well for many years despite the elitist remarks being thrown around here. I also wonder why some of you with such vocal disdain for the city moved here in the first place.THE NOTORIOUS L.I.B.E.R.A.T.I.O.N.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-22537153467682372482013-10-20T09:59:32.550-04:002013-10-20T09:59:32.550-04:00I think this pretty much says it: Rarely available...I think this pretty much says it: Rarely available large block of retail space in a prime East Village location.<br /><br />So you'll have a bland chain store.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-80860294136091661052013-10-20T09:49:08.809-04:002013-10-20T09:49:08.809-04:00Hard to get too exorcised about this.
