  • How the Rich Get a Big Real Estate Tax Break - Nytimes.Com
    7/12/13 How the Rich Get a Big Real Estate Tax Break - NYTimes.com July 12, 2013 How the Rich Get a Big Real Estate Tax Break By JULIE SATOW The rarefied few who can afford to shell out tens of millions of dollars for an apartment in one of the gleaming new condominiums being built across New York City may be searching for luxury, but in some cases they will find an unexpected perk: a break on real estate taxes that can mean tax bills as low as $96 a month. At 56 Leonard Street, where a penthouse just went into contract for $47 million, the buyers are poised to receive a 76 percent break on their real estate taxes. At 150 Charles Street, an ultraluxury development in the West Village, the tax break is 70 percent. And at One57, the 90-story skyscraper in Midtown where asking prices top $10,500 a square foot, the tax break is an eye-popping 94 percent. A recent review of the offering plans for some of the city’s most expensive new apartment buildings offers an interesting peak into the perquisites and disadvantages of a lavish lifestyle. There are the windfalls, like the generous tax breaks, but there are also oft-overlooked expenses, like mandatory health club and dining-room fees, that can add to a buyer’s bottom line. At 56 Leonard Street, for example, the buyer who is in contract for the record-breaking penthouse would typically pay $140,000 a year in real estate taxes, according to estimates from the offering plan.

  • Development News Highlights MANHATTAN - MID-2ND QUARTER 2019 PLUS an OUTER BOROUGH SNAPSHOT
    Development News Highlights MANHATTAN - MID-2ND QUARTER 2019 PLUS AN OUTER BOROUGH SNAPSHOT Pictured: 315 Meserole Street Looking Ahead U.S. Treasury Releases Additional Opportunity Zones Guidelines On April 17th the U.S. Department of the Treasury issued a highly anticipated second set of proposed regulations related to the new Opportunity Zone (OZ) tax incentive. Created by the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the tax benefi t is designed to drive economic development and create jobs by encouraging long-term investments in economically distressed communities nationwide according to the Treasury department’s press release. The latest 169-page release reportedly delivered guidance in a broader range of areas than many expected, hoping to provide investors who have been on the fence with the clarity needed to begin developing projects in distressed areas nationwide. Some government offi cials anticipate the program could spur $100 billion in new investment into the more than 8,762 zones nationwide, of which 306 are located in New York City; however there exist some concerns among critics that the program will incentivize gentrifi cation, or provide added benefi t to developers for projects they would have been pursued anyway. According to the press release by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), a key part of the newly released guidance clarifi es the “substantially all” requirements for the holding period and use of the tangible business property: • For use of the property, at least 70% of the property must be used in a qualifi ed OZ. • For the holding period of the property, tangible property must be qualifi ed opportunity zone business property for at least 90% of the Qualifi ed Opportunity Fund’s (QOF) or qualifi ed OZ business’s holding period.

  • Download Levitz Musicological Elite.Pdf
    The Musicological Elite Tamara Levitz Musicologists have been gripped by the desire to democratize, diversify, decolonize, and popularize their discipline. Driven by a growing moral demand to challenge the Eurocentric, heteronormative, exclusionary, colonial, settler colonial, non-diverse, and white supremacist legacies of a discipline plagued by its rootedness in European classical musical tradi- tions, they have recently accelerated their efforts to expand the traditional canon, reform curriculum, and explore new mediums for the dissemina- tion of ideas (for example, “popular” internet blogs over expensive aca- demic monographs). In spring 2017, the Department of Music at Harvard University symbolically led the charge in this effort by announcing they would no longer require music theory and other courses, but rather ask students to pick “no more than two” of each type of course in their pro- gram, design their study plan with the Director of Undergraduate Studies, and include a rationale that outlines their path through the major. The only requirements left are the “Concentration Tutorials” that include courses on “Thinking about Music” and “Critical Listening.”1 Harvard Professors stressed that this change would create more “flexible pathways” through their program, eliminate the class-based implicit requirements to enter it, and, most importantly, allow for a greater diversity of students and student interests.2 Reactions to these plans on social media have been vehement and fiercely divided.3 That the standard curriculum in musicology programs has become an open wound or festering reminder of the labor injustice, class division, exclusions, structures of white supremacy, and inequality in the discipline became apparent again in October 2017, when an acrimonious debate, this time about eliminating the language requirements in musicology programs, erupted on the listserv of the American Musicological Society.

Stubbins & Associates and Emery Roth & Sons Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1308, Lot 7501 (1001, 1002, 1005) On September 13, 2016, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of Citicorp Center (now 601 Lexington Avenue), including Saint Peter’s Church, and the proposed designation of the related landmark site. The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with provisions of law. Four people spoke in support of designation, including representatives of Saint Peter’s Church, Manhattan Borough President Gale A. Brewer, the New York Landmarks Conservancy, and the Municipal Art Society of New York. The principal owner, Boston Properties, and the Real Estate Board of New York submitted written testimony in support of designation. Summary The former Citicorp Center is a major example of late 20th century modern architecture. Designed by Hugh A. Stubbins & Associates, in association with Emery Roth & Sons, this early mixed-use complex contains three interlocking buildings: a 59-story office tower, a 6-story retail-and-office structure, and Saint Peter’s Church. Commissioned by First National City Bank (now Citibank), the 915-foot-tall office tower is one of New York City’s most recognizable skyscrapers. Important for its slanted top, four “super” columns that rise over 100 feet and generous public spaces, it plays a major role on the Manhattan skyline.

Jardine, architects; remodeled with a new façade 1907-08, Harry Allan Jacobs, architect Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1271, Lot 54 On March 24, 2009, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the E. Hayward and Amelia Parsons Ferry House and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 2). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of the law. A total of nine witnesses, including representatives of City Council member Daniel Garodnick, Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer, the Municipal Art Society, the Historic Districts Council, the Society for the Architecture of the City, three members of the West-54-55 Street Block Association and the president of the 45 West 54 Corporation testified in support of the proposed designation. In addition the commission has received letters in support of this designation from State Senator Liz Krueger, the Metropolitan Chapter of the Victorian Society in America, and several members of the West 54th and 55th Street Block Association. There were no speakers or letters in opposition to the designation. Prior to the hearing, on June 12, 2008, Manhattan Community Board Five voted to request the designation of this building. Summary Remodeled in 1907-08 by the noted architect Harry Allan Jacobs for investment banker Isaac Seligman and long occupied by banker E. Hayward Ferry and his wife Amelia Parsons Ferry, this highly intact former townhouse is an exceptionally fine example of the restrained Neo- French Classic variant of the Beaux Arts style and forms part of “Bankers Row,” a group of five residences built for bankers on West 56th Street, between Fifth and Sixth Avenues.
