Built full on its 25' 66' lot, the structure delivers rare scale, flexibility, and development potential at street level.As-of-right, approximately 3,300 square feet of unbuilt FAR may be added above, along with the ability to create a roof garden, greenhouse, or sunroom. Additional floor area may also be negotiable.Originally constructed in 1901, this classic one-story storefront-often referred to as a 'taxpayer-is presumed to retain its grandfathered commercial use within the current R6A zoning (verification required).
