The Rubble of 185-191 Bowery

Posted on: August 14th, 2012 by

Here’s your weekly demolition update over at the northeast corner of Bowery and Delancey. As of this morning, numbers 187-191 Bowery are completely razed, the skeletal framework of bars and netting replaced with a simple sidewalk fence. Hello, back patio trees.

Ironically, the last man standing was actually first in line at the guillotine – 185 Bowery. The onetime glorious townhouse will be completely erased by the end of the week. Commence CitizenM construction…

    Pretty much sums up what the LES has become, and the NYC, thanks to Bloomberg and Burden.
