A coalition of religious leaders is campaigning against the expansive development project at Lenox Hill Hospital, which proposes a large 436-foot medical tower. They argue that this will significantly alter the neighborhood's quality of life by introducing noise, pollution, and increased traffic congestion for the residents. In a letter sent to Northwell Health CEO Michael Dowling, clergy members expressed their fears for the safety and comfort of families, especially children attending local schools, who would have to navigate through ongoing construction for nearly a decade. They advocate for modernization but caution against the scale of the project.
The clergy members expressed concerns in a letter to Northwell Health CEO, highlighting fears over long-term disruptions to daily life due to proposed hospital expansion.
