301 Canal Street

United American Land, led by the Laboz family, plans to demolish two historic buildings in Soho, 301 Canal Street and 419-421 Broadway, initially aiming for a nine-story office and retail building. The Landmarks Preservation Commission must approve the demolition and renovation plans for adjacent 423 Broadway. Despite prior approval for a taller structure, UAL now proposes a one-story building due to unfavorable office market conditions. The new plan focuses on retail space, with a design reflecting the district’s architecture. The Laboz family is also pursuing projects in Soho following the controversial 2021 rezoning.
