Councilwoman Marjorie Velazquez’s Bronx office to protest the Bruckner Rezoning
Plan, which was passed this week.
The plan will allow an eight-story building to
be built on top of a local supermarket. The building will provide 349
affordable housing units.
Protest attendees have concerns that the building will raise
the density of the neighborhood.
Councilwoman Velazquez released a statement saying the
project would bring housing and job benefits to the community.
The New York City Council will vote on the plan on Oct. 12.
