The project is described in the filings as: alteration type 1 application, conversion within existing nine-story + penthouse + cellar building. Proposed school use. The initial cost as reported in the DOB filing for the work described in this permit application is $3,780,000.

The ground floor of the building will be converted from stores, offices, a cigar stand, and a restaurant to a kitchen, lobby, reception area, offices, and cafeteria, according to the plans. Office space on the upper floors will be converted to classrooms with office space, as well as a gymnasium on the eighth floor.

The architect listed is Michael Graves Architecture & Design.
