Most Expensive Zip Codes, 10012, Estate of the Day {Luxist}

Mar 29th 2008 3:26PM Where is the studio? This building is supposed to house fine artists and their families. That is how the building got its permit to convert to "joint living-work quarters for artists." (I know, I was at the hearing.) Under the zoning law, these artists need to be certified as such by the department of cultural affairs, whose criteria include: 1. The individual is engaged in the fine arts, not the commercial arts, including but not limited to sculpture, choreography, filmmaking, and the composition of music, regularly and on an ongoing
2. The individual demonstrates a serious, consistent commitment to his or her art form;
3. The individual is currently engaged in his or her art form;
4. The individual demonstrates a need for a large loft space in which to create his or her art.

Where???

This would probably not be among the most expensive zip codes if the zoning laws were enforced.

76 Crosby, Estate of the Day {Luxist}

Mar 29th 2008 3:18PM Heck, if the Department of Buildings enforced the zoning law, these people probably wouldn't be living there. The building is supposed to be occupied only by fine artists and their families. TV Actor is not defined as a " fine artist".
