A reader just sent us the link to the project at 1635 Lexington Avenue that we first saw activity on about a month ago. The huge lot by El Paso Taqueria at 103rd Street has been sitting vacant for the past couple years but we saw some construction starting on the site recently. So now it turns out the 60,000 square foot, 42 unit, mixed-use building will be called the
Glass Spire. Not much else on the building but you can check out the Gilman Architects' work on their site:

As long as it doesnt include rent stab. or any sort of public financed housing I am fine with it! East Harlem is drowning in these off market housing projects!
ReplyDeleteI hope it has a grocery store.
ReplyDeleteIt's probably another rehab center, unfortunately.
ReplyDeleteWorse than off-market, or a grocery store(with fruits and vegetables if you don't mind)or rehab, is how the east harlem hub at 103-104 will lose it's perspective: instead of the hill defining the neighborhood, or the multi-storied wall sculpture at the 104th st PS, it will be the oversized glass flash, that relates to nothing and offers little.
ReplyDeleteThe Associated that was on that ground floor site originally will return to the commercial space.
