A few months ago I ordered the tax photo for my building on MacDougal and it came out beautifully. Quite a difference between then and now (obviously), at least as far as ground-level businesses. Although when I bought the photo from the city it was $25, I guess they hiked the price. Drew

I know that url is complicated, so another way is to just find the Department of Buildings' main page, and look for the link to "Building Information Search."

You can get the block and lot number at the Department of Buildings' web site, at: http://a810-bisweb.nyc.gov/bisweb/bispi00.jsp?static=true&s=F9A039D2DDDD95A7DC727EAF38579F89 On the first line, search by borough, house number and street. The block and lot number should be somewhere in one of the forms that comes up. If it's not on the first page, do a little poking around.
