THEATRE REVIEW: WhirlyGig @ Traverse Theatre ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ @traversetheatre @DanielPadden @RedBridgeArt @CWheelsTheatre #WhirlyGig

A small object – spotlit, red and egg-like – lies at the foot of an empty music stand. Around which spread a white-taped constellation of geometric shapes, musical instruments and indiscernible squiggles. One of which, a large circle, stirs the curiosity of Rory Haye (one of four clownish musicians along with Sita Pieraccini, Claire Willoughby and Rory Clark) who repeatedly points and enquires,…

East Side New Developments Under the Radar 

With Rory Clark, Licensed R.E. Broker in our Village Office

Over the last 4-5 years, the new development market has seen historic growth with developers capitalizing on foreign and domestic buyer demand alike, heavily concentrated on the West 57th Street corridor (dubbed Billionaire’s Row) and downtown neighborhoods. Pricing spanning from $2,500 per square foot and higher for ultra-luxury homes have penetrated the markets, but a less hyped new development market has evolved on the East Side. With an astounding 2,043 Billionaires in the world as reported by Forbes, developers have focused on catering to an alternative buyer profile --- affordable luxury.  Below are highlighted new developments ranging as low as $1,600 per square foot for your piece of the new development market.

The Lindley – 127 East 37th Street and Third Ave: sales have just commenced for this boutique 74 unit condominium built by CBSK Ironstate (The Jefferson in East Village) and Rawlings architects, also responsible for The Frontier, the adjoining new development rental building that was recently finished replacing the Frontier Coffee Shop. Pricing starts at $1,600 per square foot featuring 24/7 concierge service, a lounge, fitness center, private storage and rooftop garden with grilling and dining areas boasting Chrysler Building views. Only a short distance to Grand Central, Midtown offices, the United Nations, the Midtown Tunnel and the East River Ferry, The Lindley’s appeal is its prime location with convenient commuting options. 

The Vantage – 308 East 38th Street between 2nd and 3rd Avenues: sales have also commenced for a unique offering on the former site of The Montrose, a rental building purchased by Gaia Real Estate and Spivak Architects designed by award-winning interior designer Andres Escobar. Adding to their portfolio in Murray Hill, Gaia Real Estate has been selling a large offering of new development units nearby at The Corinthian (330 East 38th Street) purchased from former NY Governor Elliot Spitzer in 2014 for $147M. The Vantage offers buyer-friendly dual pricing to buyers for completely renovated apartments with washer/dryers or “as is” units that can be renovated to a buyer’s customized desire on their own dime. Savvy buyers may find the lower pricing of raw apartments attractive, with pricing in the $1,300 range to include a new roof deck, 24-hour doorman, State-of-the-art Fitness Room and Yoga room, Resident’s and co-working lounge, bike storage and private storage.

685 First Avenue – between 39th and 40th Streets: Richard Meier is designing his first NYC skyscraper along with real estate mogul Sheldon Solow, who has owned this parcel along with the large development site across the street since 2000 and sold the parcel nearby which is the newly developed rental American Cooper Buildings. Construction is underway at the 32,365 sq ft parcel, which will host 556 rental and condominium units reaching 42 stories and 460 feet high, dubbed the first all-black glass building and tallest in New York City. According to the website, the project aims to provide a physical and visual connection to the surrounding neighborhood with light colored materials to promote principles of light, order and geometry with completion anticipated in 2019.

American Copper Buildings – 626 1st Avenue between 35th and 36th Streets: When the parcel was sold by Sheldon Solow to highly successful developer JDS Development (Walker Tower) and SHoP designers, the concept pushed boundaries with two rental buildings of all-copper exterior designed to gracefully color over time and an iconic skybridge connecting the two towers. The skybridge can be seen for many blocks away in all directions, highlighting the unique curvature of the buildings giving the appearance of is leaning over akin to the leaning tower of Pisa.  Within the amenity package accessible with an app is a lounge, 75-foot lap pool, hammam spa, juice bar, children’s playroom in addition to 24-hour doorman, concierge and on-site parking with valet. Opening this summer is the exclusive, resident’s only infinity roof deck pool and lounge complete with full bar service and lounges. This ultra-luxury living experience starts at $3,150 for studios and spanning to $12,500 for a large 2 bedroom, excluding larger 3 bedrooms apartments becoming available in the 2nd tower opening soon.

Lots going on!

Revision time for Uni exams... what a bore!

You should give this a listen, fantastic!

We have been discussing the podcast, a lot with each other. Got a lot of plans and ideas, that'll be interesting to add to the podcast.

In the summer, we have planned to record six 30 minute episodes. Which will make up what is to be known as Kings and a Clown: Volume 1.

The first three episodes, will be released as a prologue of sorts!

Enjoy the rest of the week, and for those doing exams or coursework; the best of luck!

'Keep your eyes peeled!'

Evening.

Will begin editing over the weekend, and should have it uploaded in a week or so.

We will be posting where to find the full episodes on this blog... so stay tuned!

Could be advertising for the podcast on facebook, so keep your eyes peeled.

Rory's been answering his critics, suggesting he is copying Karl Pilkington. Rory is NOT copying Karl Pilkington, he is however, a similar person. Karl is renown for saying stupid things, Rory is known for doing stupid things. I can see why people have made the connection.

After all, me and Josh have always said 'he's like an educated Karl Pilkington'.

Meeting up with Rory at the weekend, always a pleasure.

Anyway, here's a little treat, I will be putting up one of the jingles recorded by Josh and Rory for our feature 'tip of the day'.

Have a fantastic week and stay tuned.
