The lot

What is already here?

The lot holds a 27-story health facility built in 1956, on a 275,925 sq ft lot.

  1. Floors 21–27Above the southern skylineAbove the tallest building within sixty metres to the south, which stands 60.2 m. Nothing on that side reaches this floor.
  2. Floors 2–20Nothing on record
  3. Floor 1Street levelStreet level. The lot is recorded as public facilities and institutions.
  • Street levelPublic facilities and institutions
  • Above the southern skylineFrom about floor 21 — the tallest thing within 60 m to the south is 60.2 m
Drawn from the outline and roof height the Department of City Planning publishes for this building: 115.5 m over 27 floors, as the city counts them. 2 runs of floors have 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

THE ROCKEFELLER UNIVERSITY

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 Nov 12, 2026. They describe the tax lot, not any single filing. When the rest of New York went up

What is recorded here

Multiple filings, one stable building identifier.

New York City's Building Identification Number helps connect filings that may use different application numbers or describe different scopes of work. The records below are grouped because they publish BIN 1084781. They should not be read as a single construction project unless the underlying filings say so.

The matched set includes 27 alteration filing. Its latest status categories are 5 under review, 12 recorded as completed, 10 approved. Each filing page preserves its own status, dates, scope and source identifier.
