This is one of the better looking original blocks on all of the rezoned 4 Av with its intact uniformity and corner bay windows. I’m assuming it’s the whole block that’s going, and I know the upzoning was overall a definite positive, but this one is going to hurt a little. Hopefully the new development is a great design that makes up for it.
