Country Club Gardens redevelopment (LPC re-consideration)

On October 17, 2006, the Broe Companies requested a revision to the design guidelines for Country Club Gardens. The Landmark Preservation Commission listened to a presentation, and then solicited public comment. Of the WWP neighbors who testified, 3 were in favor and 4 were opposed.

After discussing the proposal, LPC withheld approval pending more information. They requested study of the shade impact and the possibility of moving the structures further north.

Broe will be in front of the LPC again next Tuesday, December 19th. I asked yesterday whether the new plans have been revised in any way as per these LPC concerns, but a representative declined to answer.

Next Tuesday's meeting will be held at 1 pm in the Wellington Webb office building at 201 West Colfax in Room 4.F.6. More public comment will be solicited at this point, and interested neighbors and preservationists are encouraged to attend.
