Apartment building design for Atlantic Avenue gas station site needs a tuneup, Landmarks Preservation Commission decides
Back to the drawing board, Mister Byrns.
What’s better for a landmarked brownstone Brooklyn neighborhood — a gas station or a new apartment house with lots of glass on its façade?
Neither, the city Landmarks Preservation Commission decided Tuesday.
Meenakshi Srinivasan, the preservation agency’s chair, told BKSK Architects partner Stephen Byrns to modify his design for a proposed eight-unit residential building with storefronts at 112 Atlantic Ave. He had presented the design at a public hearing at the LPC’s Lower Manhattan headquarters.
