Bridging the Gap to LES Luxury

There are two interesting things to note about the new "luxury development" on the Lower East Side at 78 Ridge Street, named River Ridge: It was a former chicken slaughterhouse, and it's excruciatingly close to the Williamsburg Bridge. We've mentioned both of these factors before, and we've been looking forward to just showing you what we mean. Unforch, we don't have any chicken heyday photos, but hopefully the brain-numbing car exhaust scent notes will drown out any remaining stink.
