Landmarks previously approved demolition of one-story garage and new seven-story building in 2011. On March 3, 2015, the Landmarks Preservation Commission considered a proposal for the demolition of an existing one-story garage, and the construction of a new six-story-plus-penthouse building, at 150 Wooster Street in the SoHo-Cast Iron Historic District. The two-lot site is currently occupied by a vacant lot and a garage, which was heavily altered from an earlier structure at some point in the 20th century after the building. Landmarks approved a project at the site in 2011, which would have been similar in scale, though one story taller, and also entailed the demolition of the garage. The project was never realized and the building now has different owners, and a different design team has been retained, for an entirely new application.
