For a while there, it appeared that maybe Robert Scarano was going to lose his architecture license, and maybe the DOB was going to give any project with the RS seal an extra special hard time. Not so much. The DOB recently green-lighted an 11-story Scarano on Bergen Street, just off 5th Avenue 4th Avenue by taking advantage of the commercial overlay from the avenue. The planned building, which is supposed to have 15 units, seems to us like it’ll be a wee bit tall for the block; we suspect at least a few neighbors will feel the same way.
