Project: 209-225 East 19th Street

Like the Greenwich Lane, Chetrit and Clipper’s undertaking will also include several buildings of varying sizes, and in Cabrini’s case, there will be four. The largest, at 209-225 East 19th Street, will have 140 units and will stand sixteen stories tall; two buildings at 228 East 20th Street and 227 East 19th Street will also have 54 units apiece, while the smallest component will be 224 East 20th Street, with just eight full-floor apartments.


The largest part of the project — at 209-225 East 19th Street — is also set for the most dramatic exterior changes. Woods Bagot’s plan will replace the structure’s tiny windows and overbearing facade with enormous panes of glass, and what look to be a mix of limestone and brick. Plans for the other three components aren’t nearly as dramatic, and 228 East 20th Street will be the only part built from scratch.

DOB permits for the project have mostly been secured, and demolition permits for the old 228 East 20th Street were submitted last May. Completion is tentatively slated for 2016.
