Tuesday hearing about replacing the Watchtower sign on the former Jehovah’s Witnesses’ headquarters
There’s been a void in the scenery on the Brooklyn waterfront since the new owner of the old Jehovah’s Witnesses’ headquarters took down the iconic Watchtower sign in December.
If a city Buildings Department determination is allowed to stand, there won’t be another sign to replace it.
Columbia Heights Associates, which now owns the religious group’s former headquarters, is appealing a decision by the Buildings Department to disapprove the replacement of the famous old sign. The agency issued the determination in April.
