LPC Approves Makeover of Municipal Building

After denying one round of renovation plans in June, the Landmarks Preservation Commission gave its blessing to a proposal by Al Laboz’s United American Land to transform the first two stories of the Brooklyn Municipal Building into retail space yesterday, Curbed reported. Mostly, the LPC asked the designers to tone down the commercial signage. “The coolest places in New York have no signs at all,” one commission member was quoted as saying.
