Pablo Jendretzki sure lucked out when he met a couple with a 6,000-square-foot loft on Sixth Avenue in Soho. Not only did the couple, who work in film and entertain often, befriend the Argentinean-born architect—they hired him to do a major renovation. In 2010, Jendretzki embarked on an overhaul of the space. While the massive living area, which takes up two-thirds of the apartment, is still open-plan, Jendretzki rewired everything "like crazy" so that 12 projectors hang from the beamed ceiling, ready to air movies or video installations on screens that descend from hidden pockets.But beyond cinematic capabilities, the couple wanted something more: "something in the space that guests wouldn't forget."

These are some of names bestowed on 190 Bowery, the mysterious 37,000-square-foot bank-turned-private-home of photographer Jay Maisel, who purchased the building for a mere$102K in 1966. When the property finally sold for an undisclosed amount in September (though it's been valued at $50M), it looked like the developer who snatched it up would surely convert it into luxury condos or an art gallery, familiar fates for old buildings in NYC. But as Curbed NY reports today, the building is already back on the market, adding another perplexing piece to this lingering enigma.

ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL WEATHER DAY here in New York city. Today we spent good amount of time with one of our out of town buyers. When the weather is pleasant in New York, it is really great to walk around the street with the buyer, they can enjoy the New York scenery and what SOHO New York has to offer.  We took some time and went to a cafe in SOHO after the showing, and it was a very productive day.
