Description
The June 2005 issue of CityLand reports on significant land use and zoning actions across New York City. Highlights include the City Council’s approval of the Kissena Park downzoning, marking the fourth Queens neighborhood rezoned in 2005, and the final approval of the Greenpoint-Williamsburg rezoning. The issue also covers the approval of two new high schools in Brooklyn and Staten Island, modifications to the Millennium Hotel plaza, and the addition of two public parking garages in Lower Manhattan. HPD advanced seven affordable housing projects totaling 668 units. Landmark actions include the designation of the Summit Hotel and Ralph Bunche House, and the denial of the Crawford Clothes Building designation following its partial demolition. Legal updates feature court decisions on Red Hook condo development, ownership of public art in SoHo, and a dismissed challenge to the Metropolitan Museum’s renovation. Pipeline charts track ULURP certifications, BSA applications, and landmark hearings.
