Mayor Michael Bloomberg supported rezoning, which affects Fort Greene, Clinton Hill, Dyker Heights and Fort Hamilton.
“These plans will catalyze growth on key corridors near transit hubs, fostering nearly 900 units of new housing and strengthening local retail activity,” Bloomberg said. “At the same time, they protect the scale and character of these lower density neighborhoods.” [amny]
