3 West Village Buildings on Perry Street Cleared for Demolition

WEST VILLAGE, NY — The city approved a row of three buildings on Perry Street for demolition last week, according to Department of Buildings records.

The buildings at 156, 158 and 160 Perry St. all had their applications processed on Aug. 11. They are all vacant.The buildings are owned by Neil Bender's William Gottlieb Real Estate, who also purchased 164 Perry St. for $13 million in November 2015, and who owns 162 Perry St. as well.

The street has become a trendy spot for new developments.

There's already a new building at 166 Perry St., constructed in 2010, where supermodel Irina Shayk used to live. (Sorry, guys, she sold her place there in December.) Another townhouse in the same building was on the market for $7.5 million last year.

The 15-story Richard Meier towers, one at 176 Perry St. and the other across the street at 173 Perry St., are located one building over. Those two buildings were finished in 2002.

Patch reached out to William Gottlieb Real Estate about plans for the spot from 156-160 Perry St., and were told they would get back to us.
