New York City’s Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) will soon review proposals to renovate and expand a row of historic structures in Manhattan’s Gansevoort Market Historic District, otherwise known as the Meatpacking District. The properties are located at 44-54 Ninth Avenue and 351-355 West 14th Street at the corner of 14th Street and Ninth Avenue.
From developer Tavros Capital Management, the proposals specify a full exterior restoration and the construction of a new nine-story commercial office in-fill behind the buildings. Local design studio BKSK Architects will serve as architect of record.
The buildings were originally completed in the 1840s and are rare surviving examples of pitched-roof row houses in Manhattan. In their existing condition, the brick façades have been stuccoed, painted white, and converted for partial residential use at the upper levels. The structures’ first floor and cellar levels are occupied by retail and dining tenants.
Renderings from BKSK Architects illustrate an extensive restoration of the façade to reflect its original red-brick design and gray slated roof. This includes replacement of existing street-level awnings and installation of new aluminum-cased windows.
The renderings also reveal redesigned retail spaces at the ground floor with skylights and exposed-brick support beams. The retail component will also extend one level below grade.

Those last 3 projects turned out quite nice. Are those giant louvers on the 2nd/3rd floor of 130 East 82nd Street?
