  • Street levelPublic facilities and institutions
  • Above the southern skylineFrom about floor 16 — the tallest thing within 60 m to the south is 45.3 m
Drawn from the outline and roof height the Department of City Planning publishes for this building: 23.8 m over 5 floors, as the city counts them. 1 run of floors has something on record. The city publishes a roof height and a storey count for the lot, and nothing at all about any individual floor. What stands to the south is measured from the city’s own footprints and roof heights; it is a statement about the skyline, not a calculation of sunlight.

Owner of record

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION

As the assessment roll records it. Only owners that read as a company are shown here; where the roll names an individual, nothing is published.

Lot facts come from NYC Department of City Planning, Primary Land Use Tax Lot Output (PLUTO) (64uk-42ks), accessed Sep 8, 2026. They describe the tax lot, not any single filing. When the rest of New York went up
