Work is starting on the Fifth Avenue Committee’s Supportive Housing Development in the South Slope at 575 Fifth Avenue. From an email circulating via the South Slope email list: “They have taken out the pay-meter and all the signage and also closed off the entrances with plywood. Just what we need — more construction on 16th street. Things were just starting to quiet down. I wonder if all those people that just moved into suite-sixteen know what they were buying into.”

Don’t feel too bad for the folks at the Suite 16. Their building made living on 16th St HELL for the past 3 years. The track record of FAC and their projects is stellar, so 575 5th Ave should have far less impact.
Besides, Suite 16 buyer: buyer beware!

don’t feel bad for any of the people buying these overpriced condos. what about the people that all they hear are jackhammers on 16th and then that huge lot on 15th.
