Historic Landmark Commission hearing for 601 West 26th Street. This says it's a 215 unit building, so that should be a fairly tall high rise. Moon Tower is 165 units and the Standard at Austin is 287 units.

They're asking to demolish the building on the corner which was built in 1890. I really wish they'd leave the building and build around it. It's a neat little building that was a grocery store for the first half of its life and then converted to apartments.

I found some info on the height a couple weeks ago, but I didn't post it because it didn't appear to be a tall building. But I'll see if I can find it again.

EDIT: I don't know where the info I saw is. But the site is just inside the area that allows 300' buildings.
