From cleansing souls to cleansing clothes at 96 Avenue B



Workers are fitting 96 Avenue B – previously home to the Hare Krishnas — with a laundromat, EVG contributor Dave on 7th notes.

The Hare Krishnas moved out of their home here between East Sixth Street and East Seventh Street back in July 2011 ... The space has been vacant since then.

Previously, from 1990-1995, 96 Avenue B was home to Metropolis Vintage Apparel...

...which has been at 43 Third Ave. between Ninth Street and 10th Street since 1995.

Plans to add two floors to the existing two-floor building never materialized. East Yoga is housed on the second level.

Former center for the Hare Krishnas for rent on Avenue B



The Hare Krishnas moved out of their home at 96 Avenue B back in July 2011 ... The space has been vacant since then... and, as you can see, it's a sizable space — 1,500 square feet...



The listing doesn't appear to be online just yet at Tower.

Meanwhile, there are plans on file with the DOB from April 2012 for the following:

RENOVATE EXISTING TWO STORY MIXED USE BUILDING BY UNDERPINNING CELLAR TO CREATE HIGHER CEILING,NEW CONCRETE SLAB, PARTITIONS, WINDOWS, PROPOSED NEW THIRD, FOURTH AND PENTHOUSE LEVELS AS PER PLANS FILED HEREWITH. OBTAIN A NEW C. OF O. UPON COMPLETION.

However, per city records, the city disapproved these plans in May 2012. So, perhaps adding the additional floors won't be happening.
