The sheets are coming off the East Village's Copper Building, a former Development Du Jour, and there are already high expectations for those floor-to-ceiling windows. One EV Grieve commenter opines: "I hope that they never get blinds. This could be our Standard Hotel!!." Ah, furthering the dream of that utopian New York where every neighborhood has its own Standard!

Will the developer take this opportunity to create buzz for the Copper Building, a la André Balazs? Or will Copper be getting curtains, stat?
