Description/Analysis
Issue Detail: To facilitate development of new multi-family apartments in the lot at 4146 Broadway, Perito Moreno Holdings LLC, owner, is requesting the vacation of the most westerly 80-feet of 6th Avenue. The owner is proposing this vacated area to be converted to a private gated parking space to service the new apartments as this site has been a hotspot for illegal dumping and police activity. A public service easement is proposed to be retained along this area for utility maintenance and services.
