“So – Fourth Avenue IS zoned for retail, but many developers elected to forego that retail in exchange for additional residential FAR above. Expect your health care and social welfare needs to be well served on Fourth Ave.”
Awesome – I’ve always wondered about this as its been an ongoing disagreement
So developers sold out the neighborhood so they could build a few extra floors of condos. Sure – doctor’s offices and hospitals are nice – but in order to turn 4th Ave into “The park avenue of brooklyn” ground floor retail that is utilized daily would have been nice.
Methadone clinic anyone??
“DH, I dare you to say the retirement home to me face to face next time we pound back PBRs.”
What’s a PBR?

Don’t tell me that WBer was actually discussing the TOPIC of this thread???
At the risk of injecting some content into this thread, Benson and Denton are both off on the community facility issue (Denton more so). A Zinka says, the area is zoned for commercial use on the ground floor. However, this building, and many like it utilized the community facility “bonus” to grab extra FAR in return for a community facility use – in this case a pediatrician’s office. (You can look it up on their NB application – the ground floor is for retail and community facility use. When they get a CO, it will show up there too.)
The community facility hasn’t changed the program – it’s still there, ripe for abuse. However, the spate of contextual zonings has eliminated it from those areas that were rezoned – the bonus is not allowed in contextual districts.
So – Fourth Avenue IS zoned for retail, but many developers elected to forego that retail in exchange for additional residential FAR above. Expect your health care and social welfare needs to be well served on Fourth Ave.
As you were.

“I’m picturing the ballerina hippos from Fantasia.”
LOL!
I’m picturing a street fight ala West Side Story with dramatic music. Maybe we can get the NY Philharmonic to play a couple of scores while the boys scurry around 4th avenue.

We could always change “I just met a girl named Maria” to “I (almost) met a girl named Tara”
I would never fight a brownstoner – undoubtedly they’d show up armed with a salvaged crown molding, and i would leave with a nasty splinter
