PAST HEARING/MEETING DATES and DECISIONS
Community Board 2 Meeting – May 15th, 2025
CB Resolution Recommends:
A. Denial of the mounting of the transom letters directly on the window and that a suitable alternative
method of mounting in keeping with the style of the building be devised and reviewed for
appropriateness by Commission staff; and
B. Approval of the design and halo lighting of the individual transom sign letters and the sign and
sidewalk lighting installed in the canopy; and
C. Denial of the hanging signs as being larger than usual and that they be of the same design and
conform to the standard size for similar signs in the district; and
D. Denial of the flags and that any replacements be of the same shape as other flags in the district and
hung from the building in the usual manner of flags or banners rather than on the edge of the marquee;
and
E. Approval of translucent material for the roof of the marquee, provided that Commission staff
verify that the material and method of installation are of a high quality.
