Unable to view Raster Layers for calculation using QGIS

I am trying to put together a raster in QGIS 3.36 (and maybe convert to vector at some point) showing areas above 100 feet in NYC for calculating housing data. I have reviewed the SE responses/methodologies for doing so, but believe I am stuck on accessing the band information from the raster file when I try to use Raster Calculator. I think I have either messed something up in configuring the data connection to the raster source or in setting properties locally of the raster, but I am not sure.

Steps:

  1. loaded raster file from https://elevation.its.ny.gov/arcgis/rest/services/NYC_TopoBathymetric2017_1_foot/ImageServer via Data Source Manager > ArcGIS REST Server

  2. Layer appears to display correctly in the canvas, aligning with the base map coastline and showing values' extentscreenshot of elevation raster with opacity lowered over base map

  3. I don't see a histogram option in the layer properties, making me think that I've configured something wronglayer properties menu

  4. When I open Raster Calculator, I don't see the option to select bands on the left. I've tried a few guesses in the expression window for the variables without luck: ("Topo">=100), ("Band 1">=100). Have tried both "create on-the-fly raster" and saving output layer to folder. First results in an empty layer, second results in "Could not create destination file" error.Screenshot of raster calculator

  5. Error message:Screenshot of error message

What am I doing wrong here?
