Permits have been filed to convert a five-story mixed-use structure into a six-story commercial building at 117 East 15th Street in Gramercy Park, Manhattan. Located between Union Square East and Irving Place, the lot is one block from the 14th Street-Union Square subway station, serviced by the 4, 5, 6, L, N, Q, R, and W trains. Alex Lee is listed as the owner behind the applications.
The proposed 60-foot-tall development will yield 11,598 square feet designated for commercial space. The steel-based structure will also have a cellar and four enclosed parking spaces.
Daeji Hwang of DJH Architecture is listed as the architect of record.
Demolition permits will likely not be needed as the project calls for a conversion. An estimated completion date has not been announced.

One-half block from Union Square, yet you insist on calling this Gramercy. I know that Google Maps told you that it’s Gramercy, but use just a little bit of intelligence.
