Why this page exists

A street with no filing is still a street.

Benson Street is mapped by the Department of City Planning and carries the buildings described above, but no Department of Buildings filing in the current snapshot names it. Nothing is missing from this page; nothing has been filed. It is not offered to search engines until a filing appears here.

The whole street

A block of Benson Street, as it stands.

Each building is its own outline at its own roof height, in its own place — the gap down the middle is the street. Turn it to see the other side. The letter on a roof is the building class the city files it under.

22 of the 39 lots the city maps on Benson Street — about 2,040 feet of it, the tallest 20 metres. Each building is the outline City Planning publishes for it, raised to the roof height the city measured, and placed where it stands in relation to its neighbours; nothing is arranged and nothing is to a different scale from anything else. The gap down the middle is the street. A letter is the building class the city files that building under.
