The City Council approved a rezoning of 2510 Coney Island Avenue in Brooklyn, changing the zoning from R4 and C8-1 to R7D with an underlying C2-4 district to facilitate higher-density, mixed-use development. The amendment also establishes a Mandatory Inclusionary Housing area under Appendix F, promoting affordable housing. The R7D District permits residential uses at a base FAR of 4.0 (up to 6.02 with MIH) and includes ground-floor commercial space within the C2-4 district. The rezoning aligns with community goals to introduce additional housing units, including affordable units, along a major retail corridor. It replaces low-rise residential and manufacturing zoning with a contextual high-density district. Under the new zoning, buildings can rise to 80 feet before setback and reach up to 110 feet. The project will likely include a mix of apartment units and street-level retail services, consistent with the C2-4 zoning. By requiring Mandatory Inclusionary Housing, the rezoning secures permanently affordable units within the development. The change also standardizes parking, setback, and streetscape requirements to match R7D standards. This discretionary action was requested by 2510 CIA, LLC and follows the City’s rezoning framework to encourage transit-accessible, affordable housing.
