Description
The May 2005 issue of CityLand highlights major land use decisions and controversies across New York City. Key developments include the City Council’s approval of Project Greenhope’s transitional housing facility in East Harlem, and the modification of the Greenpoint-Williamsburg rezoning plan to increase affordable housing incentives and create an Industrial Business Zone. The issue also covers the downzoning of Springfield Gardens and Kissena Park in Queens, and the approval of new firehouse consolidations in Brooklyn. Landmark actions include the designation of the James L. Bedell House in Staten Island, hearings on the Crawford Clothes Building and the Robert Dickey House, and the designation of the Keuffel & Esser Building. Legal updates feature a court ruling upholding the City’s adult use zoning amendments. Pipeline charts track ULURP certifications, BSA applications, and landmark hearings.
