Recent photos show the state of progress at the site, which is bound by Delancey Street to the north, Suffolk Street to the east, Broome Street to the south, and Norfolk Street to the west. The mechanical hoist remains attached to the western elevation, but should be disassembled in the coming weeks. A few other signs of construction remain, including sidewalk scaffolding on the main northern profile facing Delancey Street, metal gates and construction boards on the opposite side along Broome Street, and orange netting and temporary wooden railings around the perimeter of the setback where the landscaped terrace will be located.

    A very solid design. And a studio for under a million! There still are bargains in Manhattan.

  2. The combination of the vertical dark tan brick and white panel sections, then with the main black panels, make for a very sleek, yet very elegant design. Nice!

  3. Beautiful project
    WEll designed and a help to this neighborhood

  4. Essex Crossing has been a long time coming, but it has been worth the wait. I hate to imagine what this all would have looked like if it had been completed when first proposed ca. 40 years ago.
