Two Jane Street Development Plans Get Landmarks Hearings:
Thursday, May 12 for an 80' residence at 85 Jane Street
Monday, May 16 for a 75' apartment building at 11 Jane Street
 |
85-89 Jane Street |
Hearings have been scheduled for proposed changes to landmarked sites on Jane Street in the Greenwich Village Historic District, at 85 Jane Street (Washington/Greenwich Streets) and 11 Jane Street (8th Avenue/Hudson Street).
The application for 85 Jane Street is to “construct rooftop additions, raise the height of the street wall, and alter the rear façade,” raising the two, two-story commercial buildings of 30 feet to one five-story building of 80 feet and converting it to a single-family home.
The 11 Jane Street application is to “demolish the existing building and construct a new building,” replacing the two-story parking garage of 31 feet with a 6-story, nine-unit apartment building of 75 feet.

While some type of development will likely be allowed here, it is critical that the public weigh in on the size, scale, and design of any proposed changes and their appropriateness for their surroundings on this very special street in the Greenwich Village Historic District.
