Significant facade work seems to be nearing completion on the Switch Building, located on the Lower East Side's Norfolk Street, which should probably just be renamed SoHo East by now. Designed by nArchitects to shake up a boring neighborhood that merely has a glass hotel tower and another made up of giant blue pixels, the building is being marketed by Prudential Douglas Elliman, but our search for listings/units sold info came up short. The official website even has a broken link back to the Elliman site, so no go there.
After the jump, a photo of Switch next to its kinda-sorta neighbor, BLUE. You can almost see poor little block holdout Tonic wedged in between the two. God speed, little experimental music venue.
