I think  it's interesting that this wasn't posted to *this*  list.


Yes... because both Lussenhop and Tony glossed over the part that a number  
of people on this list find objectionable -- and that the Historical  
Commission's Architectural Committee and the Preservation Alliance also didn't  
like. 
Namely a grossly out-of-proportion 10-story building overshadowing both  the 
property in question and the houses on Baltimore Avenue.
 
Candidly, the design -- amounting to a 10-story wall halfway between Pine  
and Baltimore, extending west from 40th street -- is an affront even to us  
Philistines.
