New rules allow higher buildings along Nyack, NY waterfront

NYACK, N.Y. (AP) - New rules allow higher buildings along the waterfront in suburban Nyack (NY’-ak), New York.

Mayor Jen Laird White says changes to village zoning codes will permit projects anchored on the Hudson River to rise as high as 52 feet. That’s up from 45 feet.

The Journal News (https://lohud.us/228d8lr ) says developers would have to make a lot of concessions in exchange for more height and density. White says the community would have to benefit substantially.

The changes to the village’s waterfront zoning code were passed this week.
