Another New Building to Rise at Metropolitan & Wythe

We don't know what the new building that is coming to 268 Wythe (the northwest corner of Metropolitan and Wythe) will look like, but we do know that it will be seven stories tall and that work is underway. The site--which was up for sale for a while--is across the street from the site of the demolished former Old Dutch Mustard Building, which will be known in its new (and, we think, pedestrian) reincarnation at 80 Met. The new building, which is being developed by 91-93 Metropolitan LLC, is off to a good start--there's already a Stop Work Order on the property issued last week for some shoring that doesn't conform to filed plans.
