Posted June 12, 2019 at 5:05 am

The newest abode for the one-percent takes its place on the Bowery. That of 260 Bowery. The condo project topped out last fall, but is now really taking shape.

It’s a view to a kill. An anonymous iron worker atop Extell’s gargantuan One Manhattan Square shot a quick clip on Friday afternoon.
