About the building

5 Beekman Street, also know as Temple Court or the Beekman Palace, is  an 1882 construction. This building, constructed to replace the ashes of a burned building, was the first building in New York to be built with fire safety codes. The current state of the building, between sublime decay and solid ruin, will undergo complete restoration and transformation into a hotel. 

 

Construction started 5 days after Storefront’s Gala took place.
