City Planning Commission reviews zoning changes for Herald Square billboard
What happened
JEMB Realty is seeking zoning changes to install a four-story LED billboard at Herald Center, overlooking Herald Square. The proposed 2,333-square-foot display would require the City Planning Commission to change current zoning rules, which generally limit signs to 40 feet above street level. The proposal faces opposition from Manhattan Borough President Brad Hoylman-Sigal and local community boards. The City Planning Commission is scheduled to hold a public hearing on October 28.
