A compromise has been achieved regarding the Arrow Linen rezoning in Park Slope, resulting in two 10-story residential buildings instead of the initially proposed taller structures. The new agreement will enhance the number of rent-regulated apartments, from 25% to 40% of the total housing units, focusing on affordability for families earning around 60% of the Area Median Income. Local council member Shahana Hanif highlighted the deal as a significant improvement for the community, emphasizing the need for affordable housing amid the city's ongoing housing crisis.
We have an opportunity to create 100 new affordable units, and do so without constructing super tall buildings that would disrupt the character of the neighborhood.
