The follow-up application responds to concerns expressed by the community and elected officials throughout the 125th Street Rezoning public review process regarding the allowed maximum height of buildings in this portion of the corridor.

East Village / Lower East Side Rezoning:
A proposal to rezone approximately 114 blocks in the East Village and Lower East Side neighborhoods in Manhattan.
