The Lower East Side building that has housed the Eisner Brothers Store for the past 30 years is on the market for $18 million. The building at 75 Essex Street, listed by Lisa Bornstein of Bond New York, is being marketed as a potential condo conversion, “akin to Nolita’s Candle Building,” or for use as an office building, hotel, or museum. It will be delivered vacant with 19,300 square feet of air rights. Still, Eisner has some ideas of his own. In an interview with Bowery Boogie, he said the contract for whoever ends up taking the property off his hands will require the new owner to leave the exterior “as is.” He envisions the property as a “single-family home for a famous person… someone like Madonna.” Eisner also noted that it has the “potential for a swimming pool in the rear yard.” [Bowery Boogie]
