I'd suggested previously that maybe there is enough room so you could
put a reducing bushing in the T, then go to a new P trap with a slip
joint so that it can properly align. The way this thing was done, it
depends on the length of that nipple, how far it goes in when
tightened up to get a vertical alignment with the sink tailpiece.

I must have missed your earlier post, but your suggestion is a good option.
That would give a little bit of horizontal adjustment for aligning the P-
Trap.

Of course, if NYC doesn't allow plastic pipe as Novel thinks, that may not
be an option.
