Pier 78 For Sale

Pier 78, at the far west end of West 38th Street and where the NY Waterway is located, is up for sale, per the NY Post. It's a 24,450 square-foot piece of land that be expanded to 49,000, just as long as it's for "anything related to entertainment, dining or [business] that is water dependent," says a representative from Cushman & Wakefield, who are brokering any deals. With about ten minutes of actual thought about this, Gothamist suggests either another kayaking stop or a mini waterpark with a view (along the lines of Chelsea Piers), especially since who knows what the progess of the surf park on Randall's Island is? The property is valued at $10 million, but Gothamist wonders if it'll become more expensive, if the city is actually able to move forward with the West Side Stadium goes through. This property is $15 million LESS than a L.E.S. townhouse.

A fun fact from the article: The space was going to be used for a "Thirteenth Avenue" back in 1837. And read more about Hudson River Park from the Hudson River Park.
