Ruppert Tower 2

Absolutely no impact. The proposed garbage facility is nowhere near this complex. The route to the garbage faciltiy is nowhere near the complex either.

The proposed garbage complex is now approved and it is only a few blocks away. With 500 garbage trucks traveling to and from the site at 91st and East End, this whole neighborhood will be affected.

The garbage goes down York Ave. to East 91st St. I've seen pictures of the blocks affected on York Ave from E. 91st back to to E 87th St. when the site was last opened. Neighbors who lived in Ruppert back then said Ruppert was not affected at all. Then consider the distance from York to Third Ave. is 3 very long blocks. Walk it and you will change your mind about the impact. To boot, E 91st (between the 2 Ruppert buildings) is closed between 2nd and 3rd Aves.

What about the trucks from downtown areas. Are they all going to be going to this site? How will they get there... Up 1st/3rd, down 2nd? Or up/down York and East End? And then there is the crosstown. Anyone know the routes?

I don't think the truck traffic is the problem 500 trucks is a lot but not even 15 minutes worth of traffic, but the smell if you live within a few blocks of the transfer station in the summer between East End, York and 93-89th streets in that area described could be a problem

No trucks will go down East End Ave.

Any concern about the development on Ruppert Park by Related?

Being on 92nd St between 3rd and Second Avenue it is going to block the view for the North facing apartments, difficult to say if this is going to have a real effect on prices but I think that should be disclosed (I have been looking at some units and the broker didn't mentions anything).

The 1619 building faces E 90 and E 91 Sts. No way can you see the new apartment house going up on E 92 to E 93 Sts. Only the apartments over the E 92 entrance to 1623 and 1641 buildings will be affected.

jelj13: correct, only the apartments facing North from 1641 and 1623 will be affected. It seems that they are almost ready to start: there are no parking signs on 92nd and construction barricades.

I am seeking to buy a 2 bed / 2 bath in this building. I am NOT a broker, and I am happy to purchase directly from an owner. OK if this is owner occupied, and OK if there is a tenant in place. My timeline is flexible. My email is nycondo2013@yahoo.com
