The New York Landmark Preservation Commission is set to review a proposal for renovations to the New York Life Insurance Company Building at 108 Leonard Street in Tribeca, Manhattan. Designed by VIQ Architecture, the plans involve modifications to the Jack Shainman Gallery, which occupies the first three floors of the 13-story primarily residential building. The property was formally known as 346 Broadway and is alternately addressed as 46 Lafayette Street, where the entrance to the gallery is located.

108 Leonard was designed by Stephen Decatur Hatch of McKim, Mead & White in the neo-Italian Renaissance style and completed in 1899. Originally an office building, it underwent a residential conversion in 2014 and currently features 151 condominium units. It was designated a historical landmark in 1987.
