Museum of Reclaimed Space Planned for Avenue C

C-Squat - Museum of Reclaimed SpaceBy Kevin Korber of Village Confidential

Squatting is one of the stranger aspects of the occasionally anarchic history of the East Village. The neighborhood is home to C-Squat, the infamous reclaimed building on Avenue C between 9th and 10th Streets that was one of the targets of former mayor Rudy Giuliani’s war against squatters. However, as the neighborhood that surrounds places like C-Squat or ABC No Rio in the Lower East Side becomes more upscale, people associated with the squatter’s movement are taking steps to preserve a fading element of New York City’s history.

Soon, C-Squat will become home to the Museum of Reclaimed Space, a museum dedicated to archiving the creation of community spaces from abandoned buildings. The museum, which was the subject of a recent New York Times profile, will also cover community spaces and their uses throughout the city. Aside from squats, the Museum of Reclaimed Space also offers tours of community gardens and spaces reclaimed for art or performance.

While the Museum of Reclaimed Space is not yet opened, trial-run tours are offered on dates announced on their web site. Anyone interested in volunteering or donating to the museum can also do so at www.morusnyc.org.

Nevada Smith’s To Become Nine-Story Karl Fischer Project

Nevada Smith'sBy Kevin Korber of Village Confidential

Well-known East Village hot spot Nevada Smith’s recently left its old 3rd Avenue location under unusual circumstances, leaving the fate of the building that once housed it uncertain. Nevada Smith’s owner Patrick McCarthy spoke of plans to “demolish most of the block and replace our place…with a new luxury apartment block.” As it turns out, McCarthy may have been right: The Local reports that the bar’s former 3rd Avenue location is poised to become the next project from ubiquitous architect Karl Fischer.

Fischer has made his presence in the Village very well-known in recent years, with buildings at Bowery and East Houston Street, as well as an upcoming project on East 12th Street. According to a plan rejected by the Department of Buildings, Fischer was looking to turn the former Nevada Smith’s into an 82,000 square foot, nine-story tower with retail space and 94 condos. However, the filed plans were disapproved by the Department of Buildings because of zoning issues, according to a DOB spokesperson.

Fischer filed new plans with the DOB in February; those plans are currently “in process.” Neither Fischer nor the construction company attached to the project opted to comment on the issue at this time.

As for Nevada Smith’s, it moved to a new location at 100 1st Avenue last week.

Blissful Sunday Afternoon at Central park Manhattan New York (Photos!)

Today in New York city, the temperature is about mid to high 50 degrees, and we are certainly feeling Spring coming along.

We did not want to waste the beautiful weather, we took the time and went for a walk in the park. Once we were in the park, we see many people have the same idea. Everyone came for a walk or a jog, some with bicycles, some with skateboards. Others went for a horse carriage ride. We enjoy our time lounging around on Park benches ourselves.

Horse carriage ride.

Perfect day for a picnic, sun-bathing, lounging in the sun.

Stroll along the park in a Sunny day like today is very enjoyable and a great exercise too.

We are Central Park lovers and Upper West Side residents. If you are looking to purchase a condo near Central park, contact us today at 917 837 8869. We can show you the best part of Upper West Side neighborhood and the best condos that will suit your needs.

Community Board 2 Rejects NYU Expansion Plan

CB2 Rejects NYU expansion plansIn a unanimous vote taken last Thursday, Community Board 2 soundly rejected the expansion plans NYU had proposed for its Greenwich Village campus.

The university had little hope for acquiring the CB’s approval; community opposition to the NYU expansion plans has been both loud and plentiful. Community groups gathered before the meeting to protest NYU’s actions alongside students and teachers who disagree with the university’s position.

Among the concerns voiced over the NYU expansion plan is the scope of the project; projected construction time for the “superblocks” bordered by Mercer Street, LaGuardia Place, West 3rd Street and West Houston Street is 20 years. Local preservationist groups have also raised concern over the relative ease with which the university was allowed to get city zoning requirements waived.

Still others felt that the plan would overcrowd a neighborhood already filled with college students.

The expansion of the Greenwich Village campus is part of NYU: 2031, a massive and ambitious expansion project for the university that includes projects in Midtown East as well as Downtown Brooklyn.

The CB vote, while encouraging for NYU’s opponents, is only advisory in nature. The university is currently in the middle of a Uniform Land Use Review process that culminates with a yea-or-nay vote from Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer.
