Project Description
The applicant, Columbus 95th Street LLC, is seeking to modify the previously-approved West Side Large Scale Residential Development (CP-18505, LSRD) within the former West Side Urban Renewal Area (WSURA), pursuant to ZR Section 78-06(b)(3), in order to utilize available floor area for commercial and community facility use by constructing a two-story enlargement of the first and second floor of the building located at 95 West 95th Street (Block 1209, Lot 1 the Development Site). The proposed modification would result in an increase in the buildings gross floor area from 305,793 square feet to 328,542 square feet, an increment of 22,749 gross square feet. The amount of accessory residential floor area would decrease by 10,011 square feet due to the reallocation of accessory, residential parking space to below-grade commercial space and first floor community facility space, and the amount of non-residential floor area would increase by 32,760 gross square feet. There would be no changes to first floor residential floor area or residential dwelling units, as required under Z.R. Section 73-06(b) and no changes to the upper floors. The proposed modification would increase commercial floor area by 20,819 gross square feet, from 11,217 gross square feet to 32,036 gross square feet, and would allow for 11,941 gross square feet of community facility space.
