Development Watch: Lexington Avenue Double-Shot

There’s lots of action brewing on the westernmost block of Lexington Avenue. In addition to the recent completion of the parking lot behind 15 Quincy Street, two lots on the block are in the post-demolition, pre-construction phase. At 29 Lexington (left), the developer wants to build a five-story, ten-unit residential building but DOB has disapproved the initial plans. Same deal at 37 Lexington (right): Plans for a five-story, 24-unit building were disapproved back in February. Man, do we hope these aren’t run-of-the-mill monstrosities. This block is too architecturally special to deserve that.
