The point of the legal challenge at the BSA is not to stop the building of a transient hotel. Hotels are as-of-right in SoHo and we co-habitat with them here in SoHo with no problem.
The point of the challenge is that condo-hotels are actually residential use, which are not permitted without a "Hardship" Variance from the BSA.
The point is that Trump is doing an illegal end-run around our zoning laws, while other developers do the right thing.
This is wrong and MUST be challenged
If he gets away with this, might as well throw the Zoning Resolution in the river.
SoHo activists stand for the integrity of our zoning laws. Trumps and his sycophants will break the law to exercise their hubris and greed.
