The Extell Development Company has commissioned Beyer Blinder Belle to design a 15-story residential building at 19-25 West 20th Street in the Ladies' Mile Historic District.
An application was assigned to a plan examiner of the Department of Buildings June 4, 2008 for a building with 18 units.
The Landmarks Preservation Commission has scheduled a hearing on the design for June 17. The site is currently occupied by a parking garage designed by Matthew Del Gaudio that was built in 1926-7 and a parking lot.
In November, 2005, Extell opened a sales office for two residential condominium projects nearby, the Altair 18 at 32 West 18th Street and the Altair 20 at 15 West 20th Street. The latter is a 9-story building with 17 apartments that was erected in 1905 in neo-Renaissance style designed by Lafayette A. Goldstone.
