So there's at least 3 places in that one little stretch - vet, Rite Aid, Bargain Bazaar - I have patronized for years that will be taken away from me, and I guarantee that whatever will be coming in will be totally useless to my life.

Buildings near the western and eastern extremities of the street are generally lower than those towards the midpoint at Union Square. Most of the buildings on 14th are six-stories or fewer.<br /><br />The developer can apply for a varience, though.<br /> Ken from Ken's Kitchennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-66595665436755856192012-12-18T10:20:43.410-05:002012-12-18T10:20:43.410-05:00The smell is gone, and soon, this great place will...The smell is gone, and soon, this great place will be too.

Anyone been in recently? Has the smell dissipated?<br /><br />Gutting or a complete teardown might make sense in this case.<br /><br />dmbreamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12010750084489813951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-52454766513575636102012-12-18T08:21:42.537-05:002012-12-18T08:21:42.537-05:00Is 14th Street limited to 80' tall or does the...Is 14th Street limited to 80' tall or does the zoning end at 13th Street ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
