This derelict parking garage is for sale. The buyers will likely tear it down and redevelop.

Every time a parking garage or surface lot is torn down, an angel gets his wings.

Surface lots are THE WORST. Parking garages, while ugly, can still serve a purpose.

I’m really interested to see how this turns out. I’ve never seen a modular development come close to looking good. This one actually looks decent though.

Honestly, a carbon copy of what they did with the Goethals would work for the Outerbridge. The two old spans were practically the same. Widening the old span would be an absolute waste of money.

This is just to the north of “The Rowan” development, and after the store is torn down a development similar to “The Rowan” will be built on its site.

Weill Cornell Reveals Plans for 16-Story, $260M Upper East Side Dorm
Weill Cornell Medicine plans to build a $260 million dormitory with 221 apartments on the site of the former Church of the Epiphany, at East 74th Street and York Avenue.
Cornell purchased the property at 1393 York Avenue from the church for $68 million in 2019 and proceeded to knock down the former Episcopal church last year. Now it’s building a 16-story dorm for its graduate and medical students, with plans to wrap construction in 2025, according to the university.
The dorm will feature 221 apartments — 163 studios, seven one-bedrooms and 51 two-bedrooms — along with communal study areas, a fitness center, yoga and music rooms, meeting rooms, two lounges with outdoor terraces, and a basketball court, the university said.
The Perkins&Will -designed project will also be all-electric, with electric stoves, air-source heat pumps that provide both heating and cooling, and an air-cooled refrigerant unit that will mingle outside air and indoor exhaust air to reduce energy usage. In terms of design, the building will be clad in light gray facade paneling, with a light gold accent running along a cutout on one side for the windowed elevator lobbies.

It would be nice if this dilapidated carpark is demolished to make way for a new development.
