The rally organized by City Council Member Bill de Blasio to call for fast action on a downzoning of Carroll Gardens and an interim moratorium on any buildings more than 50 feet tall takes place today at 11AM on the steps of Borough Hall. It will include Assembly member Joan Millman, The Carroll Gardens Neighborhood Association, Carroll Gardens Coalition For Respectful Development, Baltic & Warren Neighbors, Columbia Waterfront Neighborhood Association and The Union-Sackett Block Association. Mr. de Blasio is introducing a resolution calling on the Department of City Planning to immediately start a downzoning study of Carroll Gardens and “to implement the appropriate procedure to protect the character of Carroll Gardens until the downzoning is complete.”
