Village Preservation (Geenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation) notes:
“The revised plan is a bit less awful and harmful than the plan approved by the Mayor’s City Planning Commission, but will still encourage woefully out-of-scale luxury condo, office, hotel, and big-box retail development with little or no affordable housing; demolition of buildings containing truly affordable rent-regulated housing and the displacement of its long-term, largely lower-income, disproportionately senior, artist, and Asian American residents; demolition of historic buildings; and displacement of smaller independent businesses and arts-related uses.”
