This approval will expire on June 18, 2019. The work approved consists of, at the Beekman Street, Nassau Street and Theatre Alley elevations, removing storefront infill, roll-down security gates and CMU at the storefronts; installing metal-and-glass storefront infill, featuring display windows with profiled framing and paneled bulkheads with decorative metal grilles at select locations, single-and-paired glazed doors, multi-light transoms at the projected corner storefront and northern portions of infill at the center bay on Nassau Street, operable single-pane transoms at Beekman and Nassau Streets and three northernmost openings at Theatre Alley; and louvered transoms at select locations; installing brick infill at select locations at Theatre Alley; restoring and installing Irish limestone to match historic at the reduced opening at the southernmost bay and piers at Nassau Street; installing a metal-and-glass canopy with LED lighting at the Beekman Street entrance; and installing a fixed awning clad in canvas with LED lighting and heat lamps at the underside of the awning at the Nassau Street entrance of the Annex building; and at the roof, constructing stair and elevator bulkheads, installing mechanical equipment, enclosures and acoustical wall, and installing cable railings behind existing historic decorative cast iron railings and at stone parapets. The proposal, as originally presented, called for glass railings at the roof, as shown in historic and existing condition photographs, photomontages, mock-up photographs, renderings, and drawings 01 through 38 dated June 18, 2013, prepared by Gerner Kronick + Valcarcel Architects, PC and Higgins Quasebarth & Partners, LLC, submitted as components of the application, and presented at the Public Hearing and Public Meeting. In reviewing this proposal, the Commission noted that the Temple Court Building and Annex individual landmark designation report describes 5 Beekman Street, aka 119-133 Nassau Street and 10 Theatre Alley, as an office building with Queen Anne, neo-Grec and Renaissance Revival style motifs designed by Silliman & Farnsworth and built in 1881-83, and a Romanesque Revival style office building designed by James M. Farnsworth and built in 1889-90. The Commission further noted that Certificate of No Effect 14-2888 was issued on 04/15/13 for restorative work at facade, roof and turrets; Permit for Minor Work 14-2235 was issued on 03/27/13 for window replacement; and Certificate of Appropriateness 05-2577 was issued on 10/13/04 for a building wide master plan for aluminum windows and storefronts and pin mounted signage, and rooftop mechanical equipment. With regard to this proposal, the Commission found that the installation of the bulkhead, mechanical equipment and privacy fence will not cause damage to or obscure significant features of the individual landmark; the rooftop installations, located at the southernmost area of the roof, will be seen in conjunction with other rooftop accretions, and therefore, will not detract from the significant architectural features of the building; that the height of the proposed rooftop installations will not overwhelm or significantly alter the character of the building; that the bulkhead, privacy wall flue and railings will be visible over the secondary west elevation only at a distance from various vantage points at cross streets between and along Broadway and Church Street and within City Hall Park and over the lower buildings along Park Row and therefore, will not be seen in context with the primary views on Beekman and Nassau Streets; that the existing parapet consists of varying heights and therefore, raising the parapet at the secondary south elevation of the Annex roof will not diminish the profile of this side elevation; and that the presence of this mechanical equipment on the roof of this massive office building will not diminish the special architectural or historic character of the building; that the removal of existing roll-down gates and masonry infill will eliminate unsympathetic alterations that detract from the significant architectural features of the building without the removal of any historic fabric; that the proposed storefront configuration and finishes within existing and reduced openings at Beekman and Nassau Streets and part of Theatre Alley, featuring large display windows with paneled and decorative bulkheads, single and paired doors with glazed single and multi-light transoms, will be based on physical documentation and details found on the building, and historic photographic documentation, and therefore, this work will return these storefronts closer to their original appearance; that the operation of the casement transoms, required for the proposed smoke purge system within the interior skylighted atrium, will only be perceptible when these windows are open; that the proposed infill at Theatre Alley, featuring brick, glazed and metal doors, glazed transoms and louvers, will maintain the utilitarian character at the base of the building at the service alley; that the proposed fixed fabric-covered awning with signage at the loose skirts on all sides located on the Nassau Street facade will be similar in shape to traditional awnings found at the base of buildings of this age and style; that due to their size and location, installed at the underside of the fixed awning, the LED light fixtures will not call undue attention to themselves; and that the minimal design, well-scaled signage, and lighting and glass and metal material of the canopy located on Beekman Street facade will be discreet and therefore, will not obscure or compete with significant features of the decorative entryway to be restored. Based on these findings, the Commission determined that the proposed work to be appropriate to the Individual Landmark, and voted to approve this application. However, in voting to grant this approval, the Commission stipulated that two final signed and sealed copies of the Department of Buildings filing drawings for the approved work be submitted to the staff of the Commission for review and approval. Subsequently, on September 4, 2013, December 18, 2013 and January 6, 2014, the Landmarks Preservation Commission received final revised drawings A-000.00, Z-001.00 through Z-006.00, Z-010.00 through Z-013.00, A-001.00, A-002.00, A-004.00, A-005.00, A-010.00, A-011.00, A-101.00 through A-119.00, A-122.00, A-123.00, A-125.00, A-126.00, A-128.00 through A-133.00, A-135.00, A-136.00, A-501.00 through A-510.00, A-515.00, A-601.00 through A-605.00, A-610.00 through A-614.00, A-620.00, A-700.00 through A-711.00, A-805.00, A-806.00, A-810.00 through A-815.00, A-817.00, A-901.00 through A-905.00, A-907.00, A-908.00, A-909.00, A-915.00, A-942.00, A-944.00, A-960.00 through A-966.00, A-970.00 and A-971.00 dated September 21, 2012 and last revised June 21, 2013; A-511.00 dated September 21, 2012 and last revised November 8, 2013; and A-120.00, A-121.00 and A-820.00 dated September 21, 2012 and last revised November 15, 2013, signed and sealed by Randolph H.

    Manhattan Retail Market MID-2ND QUARTER 2015 REPORT Downtown Takes Center Stage Ongoing news continues to announce the progress and upcoming openings in Lower Manhattan’s growing retail corridor, further ascertaining that the neighborhood’s shopping district has come into its own. According to a report released by the Downtown Alliance in February, a total of 76 new stores opened in Lower Manhattan in 2014 as retail leasing continues to fi ll the over 2 million square feet of new or repositioned retail space that will open or be in development by the end of 2016. While several announcements of tenant signings at Brookfi eld Place’s 250,000-square-foot retail component has regularly fi lled press pages, news from Australian-based Westfi eld Group, operator of the retail at the World Trade Center has been very limited. The 365,000-square- foot Westfi eld World Trade Center will spread out between the bases of 3- and 4 World Trade Center, the transit center’s Oculus, and all of the subterranean passages in between. The World Trade Center Mall comprised of 150 stores and restaurants is expected to open this fall, and will bring a mix of retail and food options including a 40,000-square-foot outpost of Eataly; a branch of restaurateur Daniel Boulud’s Epicerie Boulud; and rumors of chef Anthony Bourdain opening his Bourdain Market with 40-50 stalls housing vendors from across the world at 3 World Trade Center. The largest of the retail blocks, Brookfi eld Place and Westfi eld World Trade Center will be joined by Fulton Center’s 65,000 square feet of retail that is not expected to be fully occupied until later this year — also being operated by Westfi eld; the South Street Seaport’s new Pier 17 currently under construction delivering roughly 365,000 square feet of retail, dining and entertainment that is expected to deliver in 2016.

New York City emerged as the epicenter of the pandemic in the second quarter, with lockdowns keeping all but only essential workers at home. While Lower Manhattan’s office market performed well in early 2020, momentum slowed considerably in March and halted almost entirely for much of the second quarter. Office leasing is expected to be low well into the second half of 2020, and increased subleasing may create downward pressure on rents later in the year. After six consecutive quarters during which new leasing activity was greater than one million sq. ft., the second quarter saw Lower Manhattan office leasing slow to just 516,000 sq. ft. Leasing activity was down 56% from the first quarter and 60% below the five-year quarterly average as real estate decisions were put on hold. Monthly leasing figures continued to drop after limited reopenings, with just 52,000 sq. ft. of new leasing activity in June. The dual public-health and economic crises saw dramatic slowdowns across all major American office markets. Midtown Manhattan saw below-average leasing with 1.29 million sq. ft. of leasing activity, dropping 68% year-over- year and 69% behind the five-year quarterly average.
