Here is the application that was scheduled to be heard 1/21/2009 by the Hackensack Zoning Board of Adjustment. There's a lot of cases to be heard, and they probably didn't get to this one yet.
They are probably starting with this 24-story proposal so that they can "drop" to 5 or 10 stories, and get that approved. 320 Summit Ave is on the east side, midway between Golf Place and Berry Street. Unsure if this is the property that sold for a very high amount just a few years ago with intent to build a nursing home that goes through to Prospect Ave.
Someone should contact the folks at
The Carlyle and the
Barridge House, this will block their sunset views. In fact, everyone who has a sunset view on Prospect Ave should be in an uproar. If this goes through, the rest of Summit Ave south of Passaic will be compromised. What about
Bill Noonan and his group who fought Excelsior III a few years ago.
Let's see if our Zoning Board is sophisticated enough to see thru this plan. What's the point of zoning if things like this are to be approved
