   A former stable at 211 Thompson Street is raised to six stories as an apartment house

   Around 1973-75 the architect Max Wechsler converted the four-story stable at 207-213 Thompson Street into an apartment building, adding two floors, a new brick facade and trapezoidal concrete balconies. The landmarks commission says the old stable was altered beyond recognition. A garage door remains near the southern end of the facade.
