Between this and the Jacob Worth Avalon Bay, Stuart St. is thoroughly transformed. This is just a great urban street scape now, whereas before it looked like the back side of a seedy area.
Can't wait til Motor Mart Garage tower goes up. Maybe the Revere garage will get redone too?Between this and the Jacob Worth Avalon Bay, Stuart St. is thoroughly transformed. This is just a great urban street scape now, whereas before it looked like the back side of a seedy area.

Last week I spoke with the folks at 212 Stuart Street. In the earlier renderings, it showed some type of wine bar in the ground level retail. Instead, I was told there will be a Japanese restaurant in that space.
Big improvement, imho!
Generally agree, but... let's see what/how good the Japanese restaurant is before calling it an improvement.
Over a wine bar?????? All they have to do is not poison people and that will be an improvement. I would imagine the hours of operation would be more accessible and it would probably have a liquor license also.
Yeah, I mean, I'd argue I've had some... not so fresh sushi before that caused... issues. But seriously, I think we have a good amount of mediocre to meh sushi in the city at this point, I'd hope they actually elevate it and make it worth visiting, although I will admit I generally fall on a pretty traditional side in my sushi tastes. A wine bar can be fun and add to the nightlife of the area, certainly went to a few living in NYC that had great live music along with pretty good food/bites. I fully agree, though: good/great sushi > good/great wine bar.
