ISSUED TO: Karen D. Ellis Star of David Assoc. c/o Cotlandt Realty Co. 140 Fulton Street - 5th Floor New York, NY 10038

Pursuant to Section 25-310 of the Administrative Code of the City of New York, the Landmarks Preservation Commission hereby approves certain alterations to the subject premises as proposed in your application completed on July 15, 2002.

The approved work consists of cleaning the exterior of the building, including the facade and roof, of debris related to the collapse of the World Trade Center, including, at the facade, removing all loose debris using, on the horizontal surfaces, non-metallic bristle brushes or scrapers, followed up by wet wiping and a low pressure water rinse of not more than 250 PSI, and, at the roof, collecting all loose debris, washing loose gravel, and wet wiping other surfaces, as described in specifications prepared the City of New York Department of Environmental Protection and submitted as components of this application.

In reviewing this proposal, the Commission notes that the Tribeca South Historic District Designation Report describes 111 Reade Street as a neo-Grec style store and loft building designed by Berger and Bayies and built in 1885-86. The Commission also notes that there is some debris on the roof and facade

Staff has reviewed these specifications and finds that the work on the facade and roof will not require the removal of any significant protected architectural material; that it will bring the appearance of the building closer to its original condition; and that it will not detract from the architectural character of the building or streetscape. Therefore, the Commission has no objection to the work proceeding at this time, or the issuance of permits by any other city agency.
