Rendering Revealed For Broome Street Development On The Lower East Side

Permits have been filed for a 16-story mixed-use building at 64 Norfolk Street on Manhattan’s Lower East Side as part of the Broome Street Development, which is compromised of two mixed-use buildings spanning an estimated total of 387,223 square feet. Gotham Organization is listed as the owner behind the applications, and filed permits for 55 Suffolk Street last month. Gotham is coordinating administratively with the Department of Building to establish the BIN for the Suffolk Building.

The proposed 16-story, 163-foot-tall mixed-use development at 64 Norfolk Street, known as Norfolk Senior Housing Building, will yield 71,701 square feet, with 66,962 square feet designated for residential space, 4,739 square feet for community facility space. The building will have 115 low-income senior residences, with an average unit scope of 582 square feet. The concrete-based structure will also have a cellar and a public assembly on the ground floor to be utilized by Beth Hamedrash Hagodol synagogue, which previously occupied the property.

Details have also been released for Suffolk Building at 55 Suffolk Street. The 30-story, 310-foot-tall mixed-use structure will yield 315,521 square feet which includes a 38,914-square-foot flagship headquarters for the Chinese-American Planning Council. In addition, there will be 268,065 square feet of residential space for 366 units of which 25 percent will be set aside for permanent affordability, as well as 8,542 square feet of retail along Broome Street.

The preliminary rendering depicts a light gray masonry façade with a grid of floor-to-ceiling windows. There will be at least one large setback with a terrace. Daniel Heuberger of Dattner Architects is listed as the architect of record.

Located at the intersection of Broome Street and Norfolk Street, the corner lot is one block south of the Delancey Street-Essex Street subway station, serviced by the F, M, J, and Z trains. Broome Street Development will sit across from the new Essex Crossing development.

Demolition permits will likely not be needed as the lot is vacant. An estimated completion date has not been announced.

One Essex Crossing Nears Completion On Manhattan’s Lower East Side

Construction is nearing completion on One Essex Crossing, a 14-story full-block development at 202 Broome Street on Manhattan’s Lower East Side. Designed by CetraRuddy for Delancey Street Associates, which is comprised of BFC Partners, L+M Development Partners, Taconic Partners, The Prusik Group, and Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group, the mixed-use project will add a mix of residential and office space to the nine-building Essex Crossing master plan. Corcoran Sunshine Marketing Group is handling sales for One Essex Crossing, with prices ranging from $890,000 for a studio to $6,689,000 for a duplex penthouse.

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.

One Essex Crossing’s residences will be accessible via a glass-enclosed bridge with direct sight lines to Essex Market and the new Market Line retail below. Above street level is a private 9,000-square-foot landscaped garden with an outside fitness area on the sixth floor. This exterior amenity is placed on the southern half of the main setback. Two additional glass-enclosed “amenity peninsulas” overlook the gardens and feature a separate yoga room, a residents’ lounge dubbed “The Sun Room,” and a children’s playroom.

Homes range in size from 518-square-foot studios to 2,187-square-foot three-bedroom units, along with a variety of penthouses. Homes are designed with wide-plank European White Oak flooring throughout, custom kitchens with storage and display shelving, tabac oak and taupe glossy lacquer cabinetry with polished nickel fittings, honed Dolomiti marble countertops and backsplashes, and Miele appliances. Calacatta Lincoln marble lines the master bathrooms’ walls and countertops, accented by polished nickel fixtures and fittings, and secondary baths feature Bianco Carrera marble tile floors and walls. In total, 30 percent of the units will have their own outdoor space.

The property will also feature 175,000 square feet of Class A office space, with ceilings as high as 13 feet.

Essex Crossing Preps New 9-Story Development with Brownfield Cleanup

Delancey Street Associates, the developer consortium behind the billion-dollar Lower East Side project, recently submitted an application to the state for Brownfield Cleanup at Site 9 (aka 120 Essex). This will spell the end of the decades-old Essex Street Market building just north of Delancey, which has been in a proper state of devolution since vendors relocated across the street three years ago.

On this spot will rise a nine-story mixed-use building with approximately 76 residential units (31 of which are affordable), along with 14,538 square-feet of commercial space. (The current zoning designation is C4-4A and C6-2A.) The proposal also calls for ADA-compliant elevator and escalator connected to the Delancey Street subway platform below.

According to the public filing for the Brownfield Cleanup program, the initial plan was to demolish the buildings this past January and complete any remediation by end of year. The NYS Department of Environmental Conservation will consider the application later this spring; residents may comment on the plans until May 27.

As of now, there are no demolition permits associated with this address.

Development of Site 9 is running four years behind schedule. Initial target had been a start date of 2018 and completion by fourth quarter 2021.

Underground Lower East Side food hall Market Line is officially closing this April

The massive food hall under Essex Crossing opened in 2019.

Bummer about the food court. I know they are putting the blame primarily on covid but I think it was partially a design issue. The best food courts or markets around the world are passthroughs on the ground level - not tucked away in basements. Hopefully whatever goes in next can be a success. Maybe an indie movie theater or roller rink?

I assume it will just be a new operator. The space was pretty full, at least a few months ago.

Maybe UrbanSpace. They operate most of the biggest halls in NYC.

Yeah, they needed some other type of draw. I'm in that area pretty often and the only time I've ever gone down there is to use the restroom. There are so many other restaurants in the area to go and there's no real reason to be in Essex Crossing other than going to the movie theater.
