More 360 Smith Action at BSA Today

360-Smith-1008.jpgAfter a no-decision hearing last month, the Board of Standards and Appeals is holding another session this morning to consider developer Billy Stein’s request that his building at 360 Smith Street (aka the Oliver House) in Carroll Gardens be allowed to rise 70 feet, as the code dictated when he planned the project, rather than the 55 feet that the recent downzoning dictates. Gowanus Lounge is hearing that “the fix is in” for the developer. Predictions? UPDATE: Curbed is reporting that the BSA again postponed making a decision; next meeting is scheduled for November 25.
