There’s so many of these Little House situations in the Bronx. Depending on their state od repair I sometimes hate to see them go due to their charming juxtoposition but I know its progress. I just wish it was always a sure thing that the new development was attractive and not a net loss for the neighborhood aesthetically speaking but thats not always the case since so many of these Bronx buildings are either affordable jobs or at a minimum built on a real budget. We will see with this, hopefully its not tacky garbage. Like much of the west Bronx it has such solid urbanism and is filled with classic 20s and 30s uniform apartment houses and it only takes cheap and careless developers to screw that up, of which there are several repeat offenders. We will see. Also 4 floors seems kind of weak here, 37 feet is barely taller than the existing house. Strange considering most proposals are in the 6-8 floor range.
Agreed, I like a lot of the little houses and too many of their replacements are beyond awful. Density needs to go up, but it doesn’t need to be obscenely ugly.
4 story makes no sense in this location. Should be minimum 6.
