A plan to replace St. Vincent’s Hospital with a residential complex will likely be approved when it comes back to the Landmarks Preservation Commission for a vote next month, commission members said yesterday. Commission Chairman Robert Tierney said the current St. Vincent’s proposal, which lowered the height of the tallest residential building, is essentially appropriate. But Andrew Berman, director of the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation, said preservationists are still worried that the Rudin Organization’s development will not match the character of Greenwich Village.
