Signage Arrives for New Essex Market and Regal Cinemas at Essex Crossing
As if that 26-story brown building blotting the Lower East Side skyline wasn’t proof enough, the “official” arrival of the new Essex Street Market and Regal Cinemas is now further visible. Marquee signage is up and running at Essex Crossing.
The illuminated lettering was installed yesterday outside 115 Delancey Street (aka Site 2).
Meanwhile, large red Regal signage is easily noticed inside the upper reaches of the tower.
Both the movie theater and Market are expected to debut sometime this spring.
It's starting to feel real! The new Essex Market, opening this spring.
