Approved by the Planning Board:
There is one change to Tower 2 worth noting - the architects moved the loading bays to the east side of the building, that would now face the CVS and the above ground floor parking garage portion of the 65 Bay Street (along Morgan St) instead of being directly in front of the 88 Morgan residential entrance. They added an additional entrance to Tower 2 facing 88 Morgan, near Washington St but still has the main lobby entrance on the courtyard side. All three towers will have entrances into the residential buildings in the center of the lots. The tower will remain at the corner of Morgan and Washington - leaving the open space at the Morgan and Greene St corner. This will hopefully give Greene Street an bit of sunshine and a pleasant entrance to the 310 Washington St buildings from the Hudson River waterfront, a couple blocks east.
Updated plans can be found on the cityβs permit website (Plan Number: P2025-0158):
Sorry does this mean the building will be closer to Washington street or be a bit further away, giving some resident of Morgan street better views of the water still? Seems unless Iβm missing it I and 88 Morgan will be cooked with a building in front of it
It didnt move.
Unfortunately views are never guaranteed. I am about to lose my own Midtown views to a different project, but I always knew it was a possibility. There should be a law where brokers have to advise every buyer of the zoning that already exists in their vicinity.
