One of America's great Founding Fathers, John Jay, was deeded this land from the King of England, pre-American Revolution, and it has remained in the family since. Crown's scope was a full gut white box renovation, exterior rehab, and infrastructure upgrade for a new restaurant tenant. The renovation consisted of replacing a majority of the building structure due to past fire and moisture damage compounded by the effect of Hurricane Sandy. The scope consisted of waterproofing the cellar -- including installing a subsurface drainage system, designing new base building MEP and fire protection, and creating new façade openings for balconies and folding glass doors throughout the building. Crown completed the full expediting scope, including Alteration Type 1 Filing to modify the use of the upper floors and obtain a new Certificate of Occupancy.
