Despite a stop work order issued in April and 85 complaints (the last filed on September 27 for unsafe scaffolding) we heard construction equipment whirring at 23 Caton Place last week. The building, however, looks almost identical to when we last checked in, on August 4th. The project has been plagued with problems, most recently all kinds of financial meltdowns, including a suit by the bank against the developer. Will it ever see the light? GMAP P*Shark DOB

  1. The mezzanine position has been wiped out and the mezzanine lender bankrupt. The construction lender, Corus, is expected to fail based on the large portfolio of for sale condominiums it financed, many in Florida and Las Vegas.

    Until that plays out doubt much will happen here though many developers and funds are circling the property if it can be purchased “at the right price”
