Building plans unveiled for historic Brooklyn site

A public hearing was held regarding an application for a certificate of appropriateness for a new construction project in the Clinton Hill Historic District of Brooklyn. The application, identified as LPC 240-6569, pertains to a vacant lot located at 229 Waverly Avenue.

During the meeting, John Field from Building Studio Architects, representing the owner-developer AVI from AB Construction, presented plans for a single-family dwelling on the unimproved parcel. It was noted that Commissioner Goldblum recused himself from the discussion on this item.

The proposal aims to enhance the neighborhood while adhering to the guidelines set forth for historic districts, ensuring that the new construction aligns with the architectural character of the area. Further deliberations on the project are expected as the commission reviews the application in detail.
