For the interior of the building, all that is about to change! Slate Property Group is partnering with GreenOak Real Estate to give the rental building a contemporary new look.

In 2005, he picked up the building right next door at 7 West 57th Street, for $25,550,000 and until now, the 32-foot-wide property remained untouched after being converted into offices in the 1950’s.

Renderings by Raymond Chan Architect A massive mix-use building is coming to Sunset Park’s eighth avenue between 61st and 64th street. Plans for this project had been altered quite a bit, but Architect Raymond Chan will finally be moving forward with a plan that consists of a mall, a 12-story residential tower, an 11-story hotel, and a pre-K school. The residential portion of the project is planned to hold 250 rental apartments, while the hotel will have 150 rooms. The biggest change to the original plan is the addition of the school, which will be private and seat 498 students.
