  • THE BELNORD APARTMENTS, 201-22.5 West 86Th Street, Borough of Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission September 20, 1966, Number 4 LP-0289 THE BELNORD APARTMENTS, 201-22.5 West 86th Street, Borough of Manhattan. Begun 1908, completed 1909; architect H. Hobart Weekes. Landne.rk Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1234, Lot 19. On June 14, 1966, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Belnord Apartments and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site. (Item No. 21). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Two witnesses spoke in favor of designation. There were no speakers in opposition to designation. DESCRIPTION AND Al\JALY SIS Occupying an entire city block and enclosing a spacious landscaped courtyard, this massive twelve story brick and limestone building is a fine example of imagin­ ative apartment house design. Planned for gracious living, this Italian Renaissance structure is one of several large projects built at the turn of the Century, which set a rarely-surpassed standard for multiple dwellings in New York City. A notable feature of this architectural scheme is the manner in which the window arrangements differ from those in most contemporary high-rise buildings. Instead of establishing a uniform window size and subordinating the entire compo­ sition to it, the architect of the Belnord chose to use windows of several sizes, which were then further differentiated by varying their enframements and embellish­ ments. Handsome decorated p1nels were used to tie the corner windows together vertically, which, combined with the rusticated brickwork at the corners of the building, constitute a very subtle but effective vertical emphasis for each of the four long, horizontal facades.

  • In One Important Way, Condominiums Had a Banner Year in 2017. Though
    In one important way, condominiums had a banner year in 2017. Though closings were about par for the course and contract volume was nothing to write home about, a single Manhattan building finally crossed the $4 billion threshold. Thanks to a familiar face, 2017 gave us the most expensive condo building in Manhattan history, when Gary Barnett’s Central Park Tower was approved to hit the market at $4 billion. The eye-popping total exceeded its limestone rival at 220 Central Park South by about $600 million. Despite a sagging luxury market, Barnett and a handful of other developers are shooting for ambitious sellouts. Appearing on this list are Bizzi & Partners’ long-delayed supertall at 125 Greenwich Street, the Elad Group and Peebles Corporation’s drama- soaked Clock Tower conversion in Tribeca, and HFZ Capital’s conversion of the historic Belnord on the Upper West Side. After Central Park Tower, the prices drop off quickly. HFZ’s Belnord conversion was the only other condo project with a targeted price tag above $1 billion in 2017, with a projected sellout of $1.35 billion. Following that, a trio of waterfront condo towers at GID Development’s Waterline Square have a combined sellout of $1.15 billion, and two of the condo towers made the list independently. Here is the full list of the most valuable condo offering plans accepted by the New York State Attorney General’s office in 2017. 1. Central Park Tower Developer: Extell Development Sellout: $4,016,410,000 Units: 179 Type: New Construction Neighborhood: Midtown Extell’s Central Park Tower will blow past a slew of city records if it reaches its projected sellout of $4 billion for 179 apartments.

  • Temporary Upper West Side Homeless Shelters
    August 18, 2020 Steven Banks Commissioner New York City Human Resources Administration 4 World Trade Center, 42nd Floor New York, New York 10048 Dear Commissioner Banks: We appreciate the risk facing people who are homeless during the coronavirus pandemic, and thank you for your efforts to ensure every New Yorker has safe housing during this trying period. We write concerning a number of issues residents have raised regarding the operations of temporary shelters at The Hotel Belleclaire, The Lucerne Hotel, and The Belnord Hotel. Our constituents have alerted us, as well as the Administration, to the deteriorating street safety and drug activity in the area, affecting both longtime residents and those temporarily housed in the hotels. Although we remain concerned by the Department of Homeless Services (DHS)’s disregard of public input and lack of notification to the community and major community institutions, we believe the following requests will assist in aiding both longtime and shelter residents: 1. Recreational Space & Programming: We are concerned about treatment and ​ recovery services for shelter residents who are struggling with substance use disorder. Recently, there have been a number of drug-related incidents and overdoses in the community. The City must ensure that each provider has the proper staff and resources on hand to provide interventional supportive services, including but not limited to peer counseling, group support, medication assisted treatment, and naloxone. Each hotel must have designated recreation space for its clients. For example, we strongly urge that DHS have the owner of the Lucerne Hotel repair the roof deck in the building. If there is no space available on the property, each provider should find a site within walking distance of the shelter that can be used by the residents.
