Modify Tower Regulations in the SDBD
The existing tower regulations in the SDBD would be modified to accommodate new office development on small sites in Downtown Brooklyn. The new regulations would be similar to regulations in the Lower Manhattan Special District. Development sites that could potentially take advantage of these new regulations are concentrated on the south side of Willoughby Street and at Adams Street and the Fulton Street Mall. Tower coverage regulations would maintain an 85 foot base but setbacks would be 20' and tower lot coverage would be limited to 65%, with tower lot coverage above 300 feet limited to 50%.
