Alterations and Addition in 192 Water Street's Future?

When the 27,000-square-foot loft building at 192 Water Street changed hands for $5,700,000, was the impending landmarking of Dumbo factored into the price? The new owners (or, more likely, their architects) are appearing in front of the Landmarks Preservation Commission tomorrow to try to gain approval for some changes to the 1898 Edward Stone building: On their list, a rooftop addition, alteration to the ground floor and the installation of a marquee. Their recent attempts to get approval for some interior demolition in the meantime were rejected and there's currently a Stop Work Order on the property. The area's still zoned for manufacturing but most of the owners are treading water in anticipation of a rezoning to residential.
