June 13, 2012: This application was heard at the LPC on June 12th. Though the Commission liked the proposed design of the streetwall portion of the building, they felt that it should be raised an extra story (so the finished height would be 7 stories); they felt that the two penthouses were not appropriate and asked that they be re-thought. The Commission took a vote of no action and asked the applicant to return with revisions at a future public meeting, date TBD.
