Greenwich Village Children's Center Close to Choosing Buyer

GREENWICH VILLAGE?The Children's Aid Society decided late last year to put its historic Sullivan Street buildings, including the Calvert Vaux-designed 219 Sullivan Street, on the market because the neighborhood had gotten too rich for the organization's mission. Its board met last night to consider several bidders' offers on the buildings, according to the latest Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation e-mail blast. Some of the bidders hope to take down the buildings for new construction, and GVSHP is so worried by that it created the above rendering of what could end up on the lots. [CurbedWire Inbox]
