Number 533 Manhattan Avenue was an empty shell for quite a long time and now it looks like the renovations are really coming along at the South Harlem townhouse. This 15-foot wide building sold a couple of years back for $630K and a dumpster was out front of the brownstone by 123rd Street for most of 2013. When we walked by last week, we noticed that there were new windows in place and that the scratch coat on the surface has been set up for the final brownstone facade refinishing. All of the paperwork filed reveals that when all is finished up, the restored property will eventually be a 2-family home. See what Number 533 looked like before in our previous post:

the place could be nice but you have an empty lot right next to it that is way too narrow for anything to be built on it..
ReplyDeleteUntil recently the empty lot was actually a nice garden that was created and tended to by the owner of the house to the right. That was until the new owner of 533's contractors totally destroyed it recently.
ReplyDeleteNothing's too narrow to build on.
ReplyDeleteSame width as the plots on either side.
