I bet there’s a zoning reason for the weird placement on the lot.
Everything about this project is wrong. Way too tall for the neighborhood. Setback on all sides like a luxury prison. Adding more polluting traffic and expensive parking spaces. AND how can 130% of median household income be considered “affordable?” It is the very definition of NOT affordable.
@ReynosoBrooklyn please fix our ridiculous housing regulations. Brooklyn can and must do so much better than this.
hooray David for saying what I’ve been saying for years now and every YIMBY ignores.
this is INCOME LINKED HOUSING AND NOT AFFORDABLE HOUSING

Not ignored (such a repetitive loudmouth), _don’t care_. Get it straight.

YIMBYS don’t care about true affordable housing for the low and middle income people of this city,
66 parking spaces?? That’s terrible
