Document.Pdf EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Besen & Associates, as exclusive agent for Ownership, is pleased to offer for sale 506 East 6th Street, New York, NY 10022 (the “Property”) located in the East Village neighborhood of New York City. The existing Property consists of a 5-story walkup building with 14 apartments (11 FM / 3 RS), totaling approximately 6,825± square feet. Built circa 1920 and renovated in 1987, the Property is ideally located on the south side of East 6th Street between Avenue A & Avenue B in the heart of the East Village, and within walking distance of the M14A bus, the L train on 14th Street, the 6 train at Astor Place, and the 2nd Avenue F train along Houston Street. The 100% occupied Property, which is situated one block south of Tompkins Square Park and minutes from the FDR Drive, is comprised of nine (9) studios and five (5) one-bedroom residential units. The studios are averaging $1,700/month and the one-bedroom units are averaging $2,375/month, which represent a 25%- 30% discount to current market rates. The 14 apartments overall are renting at well below market rates with an average monthly rent of $1,950, offering significant upside to new ownership. In summary, the in-place rents at the Property are substantially below market and the building is in good physical condition and has been very well maintained, evidenced by its continuous 100% occupancy. As the East Village continues to develop, 506 East 6th Street is well positioned to take advantage of the continued high demand for this neighborhood, the increasing market rents, and the opportunity for an investor to reposition the tenancy and capture the upside potential. LOCATION Manhattan’s East Village is one of the city’s trendiest and most desirable neighborhoods for millennials, students, and young professionals as well as a primary destination for culture, entertainment and nightlife. Considered one of the prime residential neighborhood in New York City, it’s boundaries include Gramercy Park and Stuyvesant Town to the north, the Lower East Side to the south, and Greenwich Village to the west. The East Village is still considered to be the area “East of Broadway, to the East River, between East 14th Street and Houston Street”. The area was once generally considered to be part of the Lower East Side, but began to develop its own identity and culture in the late 1960’s, when many artists, musicians, students and hippies began to move into the area. The neighborhood has become a center of the counterculture in New York, and is known as the birthplace and historical home of many artistic movements, including punk rock and the Nuyorican literary movement. Over the past 20 years, the neighborhood has seen widespread gentrification, with new rental and condo developments, hip bars and restaurants, and independent boutiques and art galleries. Part of the neighborhood charm and attraction has been its ability to maintain it’s “edge,” and hang on to its vibrant past with its old-school eateries, retro businesses, and preserved public spaces. The East Village will always be known for its diverse community, vibrant nightlife and artistic sensibility.

Its boundary to the north is Gramercy Park and Stuyvesant Town, to the south by the Lower East Side, and to the east by the East River. Generally, although definitions vary on the neighborhood's exact street boundaries, the East Village is considered to be the area east of Broadway to the East River, between 14th Street and Houston Street. The area was once generally considered to be part of the Lower East Side, but began to develop its own identity and culture in the late 1960s, when many artists, musicians, students and hippies began to move into the area, attracted by cheap rents and the base of Beatniks who had lived there since the 1950s. The neighborhood has become a center of the counterculture in New York, and is known as the birthplace and historical home of many artistic movements, including punk rock and the Nuyorican literary movement. East Village is still known for its diverse community, vibrant nightlife and artistic sensibility, although in recent decades it has been argued that gentrification has changed the character of the neighborhood. 506 East 6th Street TRANSPORTATION SUBWAY Just a short walk from the property are multiple trains stations including: • F at 2nd Avenue • L at 1st Avenue • F, J, M, Z at Delancey St – Essex St • 6 at Astor Place • L at 3rd Avenue BY CAR Columbus Circle 28m by car Grand Central 15m by car Union Square 12m by car Wall Street 12m by car AIRPORTS Three major airports are located within xx miles of the Property.

Potential significant adverse effects to land use as a result of implementing the flood protection system are also evaluated. Potential land use issues include known or likely changes in current land uses within the study area, as well as the proposed project’s potential effect on existing and future land use patterns.

  • The Occupy Wall Street Movement's Struggle Over Privately Owned
    International Journal of Communication 11(2017), 3162–3181 1932–8036/20170005 A Noneventful Social Movement: The Occupy Wall Street Movement’s Struggle Over Privately Owned Public Space HAO CAO The University of Texas at Austin, USA Why did the Occupy Wall Street movement settle in Zuccotti Park, a privately owned public space? Why did the movement get evicted after a two-month occupation? To answer these questions, this study offers a new tentative framework, spatial opportunity structure, to understand spatial politics in social movements as the interaction of spatial structure and agency. Drawing on opportunity structure models, Sewell’s dual concept of spatial structure and agency, and his concept of event, I analyze how the Occupy activists took over and repurposed Zuccotti Park from a site of consumption and leisure to a space of political claim making. Yet, with unsympathetic public opinion, intensifying policing and surveillance, and unfavorable court rulings privileging property rights over speech rights, the temporary success did not stabilize into a durable transformation of spatial structure. My study not only explains the Occupy movement’s spatial politics but also offers a novel framework to understand the struggle over privatization of public space for future social movements and public speech and assembly in general. Keywords: Occupy Wall Street movement, privately owned public space (POPS), spatial opportunity structure, spatial agency, spatial structure, event Collective actions presuppose the copresence of “large numbers of people into limited spaces” (Sewell, 2001, p. 58). To hold many people, such spaces should, in principle, be public sites that permit free access to everyone. The Occupy Wall Street (OWS) movement, targeting the engulfing inequality in the age of financialization and neoliberalization, used occupation of symbolic sites to convey its message.

  • Chapter 4: Social Conditions
    Chapter 4: Social Conditions A. INTRODUCTION AND METHODOLOGY This chapter addresses a variety of issues that support social conditions, including population and housing characteristics, community facilities and open spaces, and neighborhood character. The discussion of social conditions considers the entire MESA study area (depicted in Figure 3-1 in Chapter 3, above) with particular focus on the project corridor—the routes proposed for the various project alternatives—where the greatest potential for change would occur. Because none of the project alternatives have the potential to change social conditions in the secondary study area, where Build Alternatives 1 and 2 would add service along an existing subway line, this analysis is of the primary study area only. The analysis was conducted by first compiling existing data for population and housing, com- munity facilities and open spaces, and neighborhood character. The source for the population and housing data is the 1990 Census of Population and Housing. The inventory of community facilities is based on Community District Needs (1997) for Manhattan’s Community Boards, the Department of Parks and Recreation’s Property Lists (dated November 4, 1996), supplementary information provided by the various Community Boards within the study area, and the informa- tion gathered for the analysis of land use, zoning, and public policy in Chapter 3. The assessment of neighborhood character is based on information gathered for other chapters of this document, particularly including the analyses of land use (Chapter 3) and visual and aesthetic considerations (Chapter 6). After assessing the existing conditions in the study area, the expected changes in the future are considered, based on information compiled in Chapter 3.
