The enormous Con Ed substation-turned home and studio of late artist Walter de Maria hit the market in February asking $25 million, and EV Grieve reports that at least one neighbor is buzzing about the identity of the buyer. The East 6th Street building could be an exhibition space for the Brant Foundation, a nonprofit that promotes contemporary art and design ad is currently based in Greenwich, Conn. As EVG astutely points out, if this is true, an awesome space just may have escaped Shaoulization. [EVG; previously]
