Q: Why are houses being demolished at the corner of North Manhattan Avenue and Vattier?
A: When it comes to that part of town these days, it seems like either a hotel or apartment complex will follow.
In this instance, workers are clearing the way for Avenue M, a four-story apartment building.
The lot being demolished for the apartments included houses at 1220, 1226 and 1230 Vattier, and 910 North Manhattan Avenue.
Avenue M and the nearby addition to 12B Lofts on Bluemont Avenue and 11th Street are both Back 9 Development projects.
Workers demolished three 11th and Bluemont properties earlier this summer for the 12B addition.
Back 9 Development owner T.J. Vilkanskas said both projects are scheduled to open Aug. 1, 2020, and leases are already being signed.
Vilkanskas said Avenue M will have a similar setup to 12B Lofts with the exceptions of using brick instead of stone and the inclusion of one-bedroom units.
He said Avenue M will have 16 one-bedroom apartments, 13 two-bedroom apartments and six four-bedroom apartments.
Vilkanskas didn’t provide pricing for Avenue M, but he said it would be similar to 12B Lofts.
In those apartments, rent is $1,400 a month for two bedrooms and $2,400 a month for four bedrooms.
