A neo-Renaissance style flats building with stores designed by Neville & Bagge and built in 1901-02. Application is to install a barrier-free access ramp.
CB8 Hearing:
LPC Hearing: 7/22/14 (Approved)
FRIENDS' Testimony:
The proposed ramp at 138 East 94th Street abuts and accesses a 1980s storefront on Lexington Avenue and does not further detract from the character of the building. The materials are functional, the placement is minimally-obtrusive to the public way, and the alteration is ultimately reversible.
The Preservation Committee at FRIENDS supports the application.
