Address: 1425 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216 Block: 1854 Lot: 49 Zoning: R7D, R6B (can build up to 23K square feet) Commercial Overlay: C2-4 (additional 7k-8K square feet) Zoning Map 17A FAR: 4.2 which can be increased to 5.6 with inclusionary housing Base Height Min/Max: 60-85 feet Building Height 100 feet Development of R7D zoning: The floor area ratio (FAR) of 4.2 ­allows greater residential density than R7A districts and less than R7X districts. In a C4-5D district or when a commercial overlay is mapped in an R7D district, the ground floor of a building must be reserved for retail uses, such as shops and services, to maintain the vitality of the street. Quality Housing bulk regulations, mandatory in R7D districts, produce ten-story buildings set at or near the street line. The base height of a new building must be 60 to 85 feet before setback, rising to a maximum building height of 100 feet. In order to maintain the continuity of the street wall, a new building can be no closer to the street line than any other building within 150 feet on the same block but need not be farther than 15 feet. In commercial overlay districts or in a C4-5D district, the street wall of a building on a wide street must extend along the entire width of the zoning lot at the street line. Interior amenities for building residents pursuant to the Quality Housing Program are required. Off-street parking is required for 50 percent of dwelling units. Development of R6B zoning: R6B districts are often traditional row house districts, which preserve the scale and harmonious streetscape of neighborhoods of four-story attached buildings developed during the 19th century. Many of these houses are set back from the street with stoops and small front yards that are typical of Brooklyn's "brownstone" neighborhoods, such as Park Slope, Boerum Hill and Bedford Stuyvesant. The Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 2.0 and the mandatory Quality Housing regulations also accommodate apartment buildings at a similar four- to five-story scale. The base height of a new building before setback must be between 30 and 40 feet; the maximum height is 50 feet. Curb cuts are prohibited on zoning lot frontages less than 40 feet. The street wall of a new building, on any lot up to 50 feet wide, must be as deep as one adjacent street wall but no deeper than the other. Buildings must have interior amenities for the residents pursuant to the Quality Housing Program. Off-street parking is required for 50% of dwelling units. It is not allowed in front of a building. Commercial Overlay C2-4 Overlay districts differ from other commercial districts in that residential bulk is governed by the residence district within which the overlay is mapped. All other commercial districts that permit residential use are assigned a specific residential district equivalent. Unless otherwise indicated on the zoning maps, the depth of overlay districts ranges from 100 to 200 feet. Generally, the lower the numerical suffix, the more off-street parking is required. For example, in C1-1 districts, typically mapped in outlying areas of the city, a large food store would require one parking space for every 100 square feet of floor area, whereas no parking is required in C1-5 districts, which are well served by mass transit.
