There are now new permits on file for a 25-story residential building, including inclusive housing, at the corner under the address 56 Great Jones St.
There are two versions of the new building — one with a cantilevered extension to the north, the other without it.
The non-cantilver version would feature 94 total residential units, including 27 MIH apartments. The cantiliver edition would have three more MIH units, for a total of 30.

The building looks nice, but will miss that little quirky market on that lot with the little Tokyo-esque alleyway and shops.
In this particular case, I might just barely side with building the larger building here. But usually I side with the more finely grained urbanism, more than the average urbanist on here, even when it’s in lieu of a much larger urban structures.
This is what would be lost:
Considering the junk across the street it could be worse.
That’s great to know!!
