Leasing underway at Stella LES on Avenue C and Houston (and 2nd Street)

Leasing is now underway at Stella LES, the new 10-floor, 45-unit residential building that has been going up these past four years on the northwest corner of Avenue C and Houston. (The official address is 251 E. Second St.)

Streeteasy currently lists seven units, ranging in price from $4,480 for a one-bedroom unit (587 square feet) to $8,160 for a two-bedroom, two-bathroom home (1,159 square feet).

And a description of the building:
Set within a unique triangular plot, Stella's architectural footprint offers studio-to-two bedroom residences with sunlit spaces and multiple exposures. Public areas are equipped with ultraviolet LED in-duct air purification systems proactively treating the air and reducing airborne and surface contaminants. With amenities such as a fitness center, roof deck and resident’s lounge, discover unmatched conveniences in a haven for Lower East Side living.
And Stella LES pays tribute to famed acting teacher Stella Adler, per the marketing materials:
Inspired by outspoken theater pioneer and Lower East Side native Stella Adler, Stella LES is a boutique 45 unit development that reflects her wildly independent spirit, her iconic status, and her fierce commitment to furthering her craft.
As previously noted, Stella LES joins the other newer residential buildings nearby bearing a single name — The Adele and The Robyn

Foundation work began in December 2016 here on this lot that housed the neighborhood's last gas station. Architect of record Rotwein+Blake previously stated that "the narrow triangular site presented numerous challenges from its odd shape to zoning constraints."

You can find the official Stella LES website here. The leasing gallery is on the property.

The building also boasts retail space on the ground floor.
