Essex Crossing is an unprecedented development in the heart of the Lower East Side. Spread over 1.9 million square feet, it comprises nine sites with over 1,000 new residences, 50% of which will be affordable, 450,000 square feet of retail, 400,000 square feet of office space, community attractions, and green spaces. These nine sites, commonly known as the Seward Park Extension Urban Renewal Area (SPEURA), sat mostly vacant since 1967 and represent one of the most significant urban renewal developments in the history of New York City. Phased construction began in the late Spring/early Summer of 2015 and is planned to be completed by 2024.
