Bowery Boogie | A Lower East Side Chronicle

Newish luxury condoplex 38 Delancey appears to be in a rough patch.  The building entrance is trapped behind plywood and shows no signs of opening, and the ginormous ground level space remains just that.  An empty void.  At least the building is collecting ad dollars on the fancy window-wrapping promotions (now HSBC, was Verizon).

After years residing at the high-traffic corner of Orchard and Grand Streets, Vogue Day Spa is no longer in business.  The storefront at 322 Grand was recently vacated, with “for rent” signs taking positions above the entranceway.
