That group opposing the 420 foot height are real sticklers, but you'd think with a new elementary school as part of the plan they'd cut the developers some slack and let them build a little taller. Especially considering there's that newish hotel a block east by the basketball courts on 6th that is reasonably tall, but I guess that's out of the designated area.

There's also a huge lot, at least by this neighborhoods standards on I think it's Van Dam, might be one block south, between Varick and Greenwich. Two new tallish hotels have been recently built near by so that site will get something new as well, eventually.
