| Construction at 250 East 57th Street is movin' along—The World-Wide Group (picked by Educational Construction Fund) is developing the 1.5-acre site into a 1 MSF mixed-use facility, including two new schools: the new High School of Art and Design and P.S. 59. Above is a view of the entrance to the new Whole Foods Market, which will be located at the base of the development. It also includes 120k SF of retail and a 59-story residential tower with 320 rental and condo units. You'll be able to pick up your ABCs and organic pomegranates by fall '12. |

(Plain scaffolding is so last season.) |
