Owner of record
EASTERN HOWARD MAZAL LLC
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 20, 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 3039567. They should not be read as a single construction project unless the underlying filings say so.
The matched set includes 1 full demolition, 3 new building. Its latest status categories are 4 approved. Each filing page preserves its own status, dates, scope and source identifier.
