New York City Council · Sep 23, 2026 · starts 0:09:13 · 1 min 4 sec

Palatnik describes the vacant site, neighboring residential building with ground-floor commercial, and proposed building layout. He notes first-floor lobby and amenity space, cellar parking, and upper-floor care facility.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

Next slide just sort of shows you everything I've already spoken about.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

If you can go one more slide forward please.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

The next slide, slide five, just gives you a good view of the context of the neighborhood.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

The site itself is now vacant.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

There are no cars or trucks being parked on it.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

You can see to the left of us is an existing residential building with ground floor commercial, and that extends pretty much entirely up the block to the left of us on Avenue K.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

We are simply a continuation of that larger density on our site.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

And I could point to, if you can go to plan sheet seven, please.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

Page 7 shows you what the building will look like from an elevation perspective.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

You could see that the first floor will be a lobby and amenity space.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

The cellar and the sub-cellar will be parking and accessory space.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

And then the long-term care facility is located up top.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

Next slide, please.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

I'll pause on the next slide and stop the conversation because I think I've given you enough information for you to act on things.

Member of the Public - Eric Palatnik

But if you'd like more, I'd be happy to continue on.
