“Community Board 7 is holding an informational meeting tonight about the MODIFICATIONS to the Fifth Avenue Committee’s supportive housing project at 575 5th Avenue.”
The modifications should include turning the site into one that contributes tax revenue to the city instead of a site that absorbs taxpayers’ revenue.
At market rates, this site would generate healthy revenue for the city.
Meanwhile, placing the proposed facility in an area of less expensive real estate would lead to a more efficient use of taxpayers’ funds.
