516 East 6th Street
Last updated on Jul 31, 2025

516 East 6th Street

Benjamin Shaoul was ordered to remove four cabin-like structures on the seventh floor of his buildings at 514-516 East Sixth Street in the East Village. The additions violated the state's 1929 multiple dwelling law by flouting fire and elevator rules, leading to legal disputes and appeals.
