The condo tower, along with an Islamic center next door at 51 Park Place, has taken years to develop.

The developer behind Islamic center Park51 is planning a three-story museum at the TriBeCa site.

The Park Place community center and prayer space will be demolished, according to DOB permits.

Sharif El-Gamal plans to buy and redevelop the home of the Garment Center Congregation Synagogue.

Sharif El-Gamal's latest property is adjacent to the site of his planned Islamic cultural center.

Justice Richard Braun ruled Nov. 25, 2011 that Con Edison cannot evict Park51 from 51 Park Place.

The lead developer behind the "Park51" project revealed in an interview that financial constraints had forced him to consider new uses for the property.

Con Ed was threatening to terminate Park51's lease on 51 Park Pl. as early as Oct. 4, 2011. Park51's community center once included plans for a controversial mosque.

The Park51 community center opened Wednesday night with a photography exhibit showcasing New York's diversity.

The Park51 community center plans to hold cultural and interfaith programs.

Imam Abdallah Adhami will no longer serve as senior adviser to Park51, the project's leaders said.

Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf said he would consider other locations for the project, currently planned close to Ground Zero.

Lawyers for the proposed mosque near Ground Zero hope a technicality will end a lawsuit against them.

Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf is reportedly reducing his role in the project.

Members of the public are invited to RSVP to attend the Wednesday night Q-and-A sessions.
