The Sapir Organization’s office rehabilitation project at 100 Church
Street has financial challenges that extend beyond the scuttled lease
deal for the Claremont School that led to a lawsuit against SL Green
Realty last week.
Seven architectural and contracting firms that have worked at 100
Church Street in Lower Manhattan claim they are owed nearly $3 million
in unpaid invoices since March from the building’s owner, Sapir, a
Midtown-based developer and owner.
Between March and August, the companies filed mechanic’s liens totaling
$2.89 million, including $202,919 by Long Island City-based Remco
Maintenance and $1.7 million by Ecker Window, based in Yonkers,
according to a review of New York County Clerk records by The Real
Deal. More
