Landmarks Preservation Commission okays residential conversion of Green Point Savings Bank’s annex
Busy developer Slate Property Group is involved in a Greenpoint residential project you probably haven’t heard about until now.
It involves a decidedly un-picturesque 1950s-vintage office building — which is an annex to stunning, century-old neo-Classical-style Green Point Savings Bank at 807 Manhattan Ave.
On Tuesday, the city Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) greenlighted Slate Property Group’s plan to give the three-story, 40-foot office building a new façade and enlarge it to a five-story, 70-foot structure.
