62-824 Modifications to Passenger Queuing Shelters for Ferry or Water Taxi Docking Facilities

In Community District 1 in the Borough of Brooklyn, the City Planning Commission may authorize a ferry passenger queuing shelter exceeding the dimensions set forth in paragraph (c)(1) of Section 62-813 (Docking facilities for ferries or water taxis in certain waterfront areas), provided that the Commission finds that:

1. the public benefit derived from the proposed shelter merits the larger dimensions authorized;
2. the proposed shelter utilizes the design standards set forth in paragraph (c)(1) of Section 62-813 regarding permitted support structures, materials, signage and roof construction to the greatest extent feasible;
3. any modification to such provisions of Section 62-813 will not unduly limit views from the #waterfront public access area#; and
4. the design of the proposed shelter will result in a quality structure that complements the #waterfront public access area# or the publicly accessible area of a #waterfront zoning lot# accommodating the ferry or water taxi docking facility.
