63 Schermerhorn: How You Lookin'?
The 13-story development at 63 Schermerhorn is slowly but surely moving along. When we posted about it last Spring, some readers thought it was going to be a rental building. Is that still the plan? Development Watch: 63 Schermerhorn Street [Brownstoner] GMAP

I love Houston. I was born in Bozeman. And, yes, I am orientated.
‘the people on the site’ – always take it as fact.
Applications/permits are avail on DOB website – if you really cared. Could find not just how many stories – but how tall ( an 11 and a 13 story bldg could be same ht.) – how many apts, all residential or some commercial, parking, etc.
as long as we’re all over the place, let me add that it used to drive me crazy when folks upstate (and I don’t mean Newburgh, city-folk) used to say “orientated.” finally, I looked it up in the dictionary and, guess what? both words are correct and synonymous.
Before there was anything available at the DOB, the people on the site told us in the neighborhood that it was to be an 11-story rental building. Granted, this was not official, but it’s good manners to let your neighbors know what you are doing (as we live with the dirt, street blockage, and garbage blowing from the site).
of course just one commentor said was ‘supposed to be 11’ not 13.
Yeah – so where do you get that info?
I don’t see any DOB application on city website saying anything about 11 story bldg just 13.
The tea pot calling the kettle black, lol. Anon 11:38pm, you should take it personal when you put your foot in your mouth, especially when you’re jumping the AY bandwagon onlack of Vit. E. How u like ’em apples
Anon 6:44, Who makes mac mansions…Apple? A Scot?
Anon 7:53, the word is oriented, not orientated. And the other word is it’s, not its.
Just throwing some back at you bozos.
Anon 2:01, get orientated, its on the north side of the block where the sun doesn’t affect your Vitamin E intake.
You want more sun, move to Montana
heck, why don’t we just eliminate zoning codes completely and allow developers to build with no sense of urban planning like they do in Houston.
Houston is the developer’s nirvana where they are allowed to build an industrial factory right next to a day care center that is across the street from a mac mansion which is next door to a gas station that is adjacent to a power plant/waste facility.
Heck, let’s abolish all zoning and grant developers free reign because they and only they know what’s best.
