90 Seconds to Napoli

The northeast corner of University and 13th St., looking east, circa 1935. That’s the corner with the Basics hardware store. Fascinating!

DOB has granted our request to start placing our concrete at 6am, which will allow us to finish this work earlier in the evening. We have 3 more instances like this until we finish our superstructure in early June.

Therefore, next week (April 30 to May 4), Superstructure work will continue at the 15th and 16th floor levels. Tuesday, May 1st and Friday, May 4th we will have a pour with a 6 am start time and similar end time, weather permitting. Deliveries for the internal systems of the building have been ongoing and will continue, although they should not greatly affect the flow of pedestrian and road traffic.

The following week (May 7 to May 11), we will continue superstructure concrete and slabs on the 17th floor and roof levels. Deliveries for the internal systems of the building have been ongoing and will continue, although they should not greatly affect the flow of pedestrian and road traffic.

This weekend the site will be closed.

Soon to arrive on East 13th. St. in the former Blick Art Space is HGL Art. Here’s how they explain themselves:

“HGL ART provides support for parents/guardians by having children explore the World Art School through a fully immersive bilingual art curriculum focusing on the arts, dance, and music. The program is designed to alleviate the stress of finding courses or activities that provide both safety and a strong foundation for education and creativity. We know that every parent and child’s breaks and schedule vary which is why we offer semesterly admission for the courses and accompanied sessions for the weekend activities to accommodate whatever format works best.”

Awful news: the building replacing Bowlmor Lanes will be 23 stories high. Here are the terrible details.

Next week (December 9th to December 13th ), material and equipment deliveries and installation work will continue on the academic floors inside the building.

The following week (December 16to to December 20th ), material and equipment deliveries and installation work will continue on academic floors

This weekend the site will be open on Saturday and Sunday, December 7th and 8th for interior activities between the work hours of 7AM and 7PM as permitted by the City.
