Markowitz: Limit size of Atlantic Yards

Brooklyn borough president Marty Markowitz, one of the biggest boosters of the proposed Atlantic Yards project, says he’s now in favor of limiting the height of the project’s tallest tower. Markowitz wants a 620-foot tower dubbed Miss Brooklyn to rise no higher than the nearby Williamsburgh Savings Bank, currently the borough’s tallest building. He also wants three other Atlantic Yards buildings to be smaller than planned. more [NYT] and more [Post]
