Finally, some inside information on the new Karl Fischer condo development at 263 Bowery. It’s been over a month since the unsightly exoskeleton was removed.

No listings just yet, but there are some early renderings of the full-floor 2-BR apartments for sale. There are four total units in the building, plus the four levels of commercials space down below.
