Here we are at
1874 Hart Street, which is on a nice, quiet, rowhouse-lined block in Ridgewood.
What we have here is a horrendous
vertical enlargement.
The 4-apartment building will soon be an
8-apartment building.
Some of the
complaints are quite interesting.
One resulted in a
stop work order.
Looks like they're also moving the entrance over to the left and installing a ramp which no other building on this street has. Sigh.

More overcrowded subways!
It's looks like a treehouse.
I think a ramp is required for buildings with more than some minimum that require steps to enter
Following the rules and regulations set forth...
Um, sorry but this is GOOD news. Do you think housing will get any cheaper without increasing supply somewhere? Don't give me this standard NIMBY'ism BS of "neighborhood character".
Yes, because what we need is more yuppie housing in a gentrifying neighborhood. This will stop the homeless crisis. (end sarcasm)
More housing won't stop the homeless problem, but it will ease the pressure on the working class who are being priced out of the City.
As for the ramp, I assume it's required by law, but is there any way to have a ramp without making the frontage look so ugly?
