  • Manhattan Retail Market MID-2ND QUARTER 2016 REPORT Retail Activity in the News
    Manhattan Retail Market MID-2ND QUARTER 2016 REPORT Retail Activity In The News Virtual Restaurant Business Revolutionizing Traditional Food Delivery The growing convenience of home food delivery through services such as Seamless and GrubHub has prompted the launch of what can be best described as “virtual restaurants.” One company Green Summit Group currently operates 2-kitchens and boasts 8 “restaurant” brands, yet is void of any storefronts. The business model is banking on the projection that most New York City dwellers won’t care or realize that the food is not being prepared in a traditional restaurant. Green Summit has eliminated the burden of managing retail spaces, while also further benef ting from its ability to shift menu items more quickly to cater to the fast-evolving preferences of consumers by creating another online-branded “restaurant” that appeals to the f avor of the moment. If a particular brand does not meet f nancial expectations it is easily scrapped, incurring a relatively low cost of failure. Currently in expansion mode, in addition to existing kitchens in Midtown and Williamsburg, Brooklyn, the Green Summit plans to open 4 additional kitchens in the Financial District, Downtown Brooklyn, the Upper East Side, and the East Village in 2016 in order to be within delivery range of 90% of New York’s online food-ordering population according to the company’s projections. Generating about $10 million in revenue in 2015, expansion plans are reportedly expected to triple revenue in 2016. Success of the company launched about 2 and a-half years ago may be short-lived in the opinion of some skeptics of the virtual model, pointing out that consumers want to engage with the restaurant brand.

  • SHELTON HOTEL, 525 Lexington Avenue
    Landmarks Preservation Commission November 22, 2016, Designation List 490 LP-2557 SHELTON HOTEL, 525 Lexington Avenue (aka 523-527 Lexington Avenue, 137-139 East 48th Street, 136-140 East 49th Street), Manhattan Built: 1922-23; architect, Arthur Loomis Harmon Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan, Tax Map Block 1303, Lot 53 On July 19, 2016 the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Shelton Hotel and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 4). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of the law. A representative of the owner spoke in favor of the designation acknowledging the building’s architectural and cultural importance. There were five other speakers in support of the designation including representatives of Borough President Gale Brewer, Community Board 6, the New York Landmarks Conservancy, the Historic Districts Council, and the Municipal Arts Society. A representative of the Real Estate Board of New York spoke in opposition to the designation. A representative of Council Member Daniel Garodnick submitted written testimony in support of the designation. Two other individuals have also submitted emails in support of the designation. Summary Designed by architect Arthur Loomis Harmon and completed in 1923, the Shelton Hotel was one of the first “skyscraper” residential hotels. With its powerful massing it played an important role in the development of the skyscraper in New York City. Located on the east side of Lexington Avenue between 48th and 49th Streets, it is one of the premiere hotels constructed along the noted “hotel alley” stretch of Lexington Avenue, which was built as part of the redevelopment of this section of East Midtown that followed the opening of Grand Central Terminal and the Lexington Avenue subway line.

  • The Fulton Center: New York City, NY, USA Authors Design of the Cable Net Zak Kostura Erin Morrow Ben Urick
    Location The Fulton Center: New York City, NY, USA Authors design of the cable net Zak Kostura Erin Morrow Ben Urick Introduction At the corner of Fulton Street and Broadway, one block east of the World Trade Center site and two blocks south of City Hall Park, 11 New York City subway lines converge in a hub serving over 300 000 transit riders daily. With their dense tangle, these lines have evaded efficient connection for nearly a century, a legacy of disparate planning and construction practices common to the era of competitive, privatised transit operation — and despite being unified under a single state agency in 1968. In the aftermath of September 11, 2001, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) enacted plans to redevelop this hub into an efficient transfer point, replacing the labyrinth of corridors, retroactively constructed to link existing lines, with an efficient system of pedestrian mezzanines, concourses and underpasses, complete with elevators and escalators to comply with the provisions of the Americans With Disability Act (Fig 2). And at the corner of Broadway and Fulton, the MTA planned a spacious 1.

  • Hecla Iron Works Building, 100-118 North 11M Street, Brooklyn
    Landmarks Preservation Commission June 8, 2004, Designation List 354 LP- 2146 Hecla Iron Works Building, 100-118 North 11m Street, Brooklyn. Built 1896-97; design attributed to Niels Pouslon; iron elements cast by the Hecla Iron Works. Landmark Site: Borough of Brooklyn Tax Map Block 2296, Lot 14, in part, consisting of the land beneath the 1896-97 building. On March 3, 2004 the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Hecla Iron Works Building and the proposed designation of the Landmark Site (Item No. 3). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. A total of five speakers, including representatives of the Landmarks Conservancy, Historic Districts Council and Modern Architecture Working Group, as well as a tenant in the building, testified in support of designation. The commission also received numerous letters in support of designation, including many from residents of Williamsburg. A representative of the owner faxed a letter expressing opposition to designation. Summary The Hecla Iron Works Building, constructed in 1896-97, is located on North 11 '11 Street in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Four stories tall, the front and rear elevations are faced with cast-iron panels enriched by simple classical details. While most iron fronts incorporate rows of weight-bearing columns, this facade is only a few inches thick, suggestive of skin rather than structure. In combination with metal frame windows, which are all original to the building, it anticipates the decline of masonry fronts and the rise of the modern curtain wall. Niels Poulson, who co-founded the company with Charles Eger in 1876, is likely to have supervised the building's design and construction.
