Construction Billow
Wednesday, April 11th, 2012
The Hotel Ludlow, or whatever it is calling itself these days has resumed construction over the past month or so. But I haven’t seen anything substantial happening on the outside.
Cut Along the Dotted Line
Thursday, March 15th, 2012
I was just quietly celebrating the closing up of an East Houston Street trench that they have been noisily working on for the past two months. Today they are resuming the torture on the other side of the street. This dotted line extends between Avenue A and Avenue B. Not only does this construction annoy during the day with construction noise, it continues into the night with idiots honking their horns because of the congestion.

139-141 Orchard Street. When the steel workers reach their highest point they plant a flag.
Crane Barge Moves On
Saturday, June 12th, 2010
The crane barge has moved a bit south of where it was a couple of weeks ago, but mysteriously it has left the pilings still unfinished.
The East River Promenade is still closed below Houston Street, though amenities in that closed stretch, such as more park benches, have been added since my last report. If you stay here for any length of time you will see many joggers and bikers disappointingly staring at this fence. There is no exit here, you need to go north four blocks to get out.
