Withdraw approval for the high-rise at the “McMobil” site on 53rd St.

The Issue

The building proposed is too tall and completely out of scale with its surroundings. It would pose hazards to the students of Murray elementary school across the street, choke 53rd Street with traffic, create parking nightmares, and degrade the quality of life in the area around the building.
