The lot

What is already here?

The lot holds a 5-story office building built in 1900, on a 5,000 sq ft lot.

  1. Floors 2–5Nothing on record
  2. Floor 1Street levelStreet level. The lot is recorded as commercial and office, so this floor is where the commercial space is.
  • Street levelCommercial and office
  • Above the southern skylineFrom about floor 54 — the tallest thing within 60 m to the south is 161.8 m
Drawn from the outline and roof height the Department of City Planning publishes for this building: 18 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.

Housing violations

67 violations are open against this address under the Housing Maintenance Code. 10 of them are the class the city calls immediately hazardous.

  • 10Immediately hazardous
  • 39Hazardous
  • 18Non-hazardous
  • 0Information order

Open means the Department of Housing Preservation and Development has not recorded it as corrected, which is not the same as nobody having fixed it. The city publishes the apartment each was written against; that is not carried here, because a count says a building has a problem and an apartment number says whose.

Owner of record

THE SHUBERT ORGANIZATION INC

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 22, 2026. They describe the tax lot, not any single filing. When the rest of New York went up
