195-197 Chrystie Street, located in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, New York City, possesses a rich historical context. The site was originally part of the second African American burial ground, established in 1795 at the west side of Chrystie Street, between Stanton and Rivington Streets. This burial ground was used by the African Society, a group of free black Episcopalians, to bury Black individuals of all denominations and statuses in New York City.

In 1827, the ownership of the burial ground was transferred to the trustees of St. Philip's Church, an African American Episcopal parish founded in 1809. The cemetery remained in use until 1835, when it became full, leading to the interment of remains in shallower graves than legally permitted. In 1852, St. Philip's sold the cemetery property and, in 1853, reinterred remains at Cypress Hills Cemetery in Brooklyn.

The original cemetery site at Chrystie Street was redeveloped. The current building at 195-197 Chrystie Street was constructed in 1920 and features a nine-story structure.

Vaultus Professional Service Testimonial

Vaultus Professional Service testimonial To whom it may concern: I have had the opportunity to work with "Optimal Spaces" (specifically, Stephen Sunderland) over the last 18 months. Steve was hired to find a reasonably priced lease for corporate office space that would support our highly professional environment. I considered this to be a significant challenge since Manhattan was experiencing a severe shortage in available professional spaces. Honestly, I was expecting to be "sold" a space that would not meet all of our needs. However, in a short period of time, Stephen found a tower-floor space that exceeded my expectations and that was approximately 25% below the current market rates for comparable space. The most important aspect of working with Stephen is the level to which I can trust him to act in my best interest. I believe that Stephen possesses extensive knowledge of the real estate market and negotiation, is responsive, and performs his work in a highly professional manner. I am impressed by Stephen's sincere desire to understand his clients' needs. It is clear to me that Stephen is most interested in building mutually beneficial business relationships with his clients -- not the commissions they represent. I am happy to recommend "Optimal Spaces" to other growing businesses, and I look forward to working with "Optimal Spaces" again. Sincerely, Joseph J. Tutrone Vice President Vaultus Professional Service
