New French/Japanese Patisserie to Open
You may remember The Adore on the 13th St. block. Now, a couple of doors down at the former site of the copy shop and, briefly, Blossom de Jour, will be a new French/Japanese bakery called Patisserie Fouet.

Our Tall New Neighbor
An update on our very tall upcoming neighbor:
Greenwich Spire (aka “11 W 13th“) is now rising on the northern edge of Greenwich Village, adjacent to Union Square, where deck-forming is now visible on the 7th level of the eventual 30-story luxury residential tower. The team of Legion Investment Group & EJS Group are behind the 109,000 SF project that contains 34 for-sale units, yielding an average, yet generous unit size of 3,200 SF. Additional uses include, 2,400 SF of retail and 7 enclosed parking spaces. Leroy Street Studio will handle the interior design; however renderings for interiors have not been made available at this stage of the project. The General Contractor for the 502′-tall structure is Titanium Construction, who advertises a completion target of mid-2028. Corcoran Sunshine is marketing the property and should launch sales sometime next year. Greenwich Spire replaces a 7-story mid-century commercial property, last home to a branch of NYC Dept. of Social Services.
All’onda is Done
Two and a half years after opening, All’onda, on East 13th St., is done. It burned hot and bright, but the fire couldn’t last forever.
