LOWER EAST SIDE?The market hasn't been extremely friendly to 75 Essex Street, which the Eisner Brothers hoped to sell to Madonna or a developer with a condo conversion in mind. Two listings at $18 million have failed to move the property, but hey, it's not true unless the results are repeatable. So the building's on the market again, for the same $18 million ask. Remember, developers, the conversion could be "akin to Nolita's Candle Building." [CurbedWire Inbox]
