WHITE IRON WBRASS ACCENTS SOLID OAK WITH BRASS TRIM Din'v News Siat wmef The 7.200 square feet of rehearsal space for nonprofit dance companies planned by the developers of City-Spire, the 72-story luxury condominium on W. 5jth St, is a "significant be-glnning in solving the serious problem" of skyrocketing rents facing the city's dance companies, the city's Department of Cultural Affairs said yesterday. The building of the rehearsal halls is considered a logical compromise to the dilemma that New York City and CitySpire faced when it was discovered that the building had exceeded height regulations by 10.88 feet, according to Cultural Affairs spokeswoman Linda Blumberg. She added that, if approved, these will be the first dance-rehearsal halls to be owned and administrated by the city.

45 studios have shut The department's attorney, Susan Rothschild, who had participated in the negotiations with CitySpire, noted that "45 dance studios have closed in the last few years because of the real estate crisis." Developer Ian Bruce Eichner had been in hot water since it was discovered last year that the skyscraper would wind up being 813.53 feet, rather than the 802 65 feet for which it had been approved. The City Planning Commission turned down Eichner's request in December for retroactive approval for the extra height for the sleek, dome-topped structure at 156 W. 56th St According to Eichner's lawyer, Howard Ilornstein, the additional footage was created by an honest error of miscalculations and the necessity of increasing the size of supports to strengthen the building. Through-block arcade Rothschild said the studios will be built on top of a through-block arcade fronting 55th St that has been built as part of the CitySpire project The arcade stretches from the skyscraper to City Center, home to a number of nonprofit dance companies. City Center, at 131 W.

55th, is located behind CitySpire. The studios will cost Eichner $2 million. The 68th and 69th floors of CitySpire, which represent about 10,000 square feet of space, will remain closed until the construction of the studio space is completed. Also, as part of the deal. Eichner will drop a lawsuit against the city.
