> New York-based Greystone & Co. has submitted plans to partially demolish a historic building at 2500 Biscayne Boulevard that dates back to 1923. A 20-story residential tower is planned to be integrated with the remains of the structure.

> Greystone bought the .87 acre property earlier this year for $10 million. A local developer is partnering with Greystone on the project.

> The plan will be reviewed by Miami’s Historic Preservation Board later today. The city’s preservation office is recommending that the board vote to deny the plan.

> Behar Font & Partners is the project architect.
