advocates and residents of the Historic Seaport District have no problem with developing the 250 Water Street parking lot if the development is within the context of the current zoning requirements of 120’. We further have no problem with affordable housing as long as it is within the current zoning requirements. There are many super tall residential buildings that have and are going up in the FIDI area.
The museum has always been the number one priority of the residents of the seaport area and have proposed a plan to use the sale of the air rights outside the historic district to fund the museum, which, by the way, will give the museum greater financial stability than what HHC is offering.
I find it interesting that supporters of HHC have no interest in finding a better solution to the 250 Water Street development than just build a super tall structure, that is completely out of context with the rest of the Historic District.
