When both phases of the project are complete, it will include nearly three million square feet of office space, 643 condominium apartments and over M0,000 sq. ft. of retail space on the 16-acre site in Fort Greene.The HHC resolution approved limits rental of space in one of the two 24-story office towers planned for the site to between 415,000 sq. ft. Find 475,000 sq. ft. at an initial rent of $16.50 sq. ft.A year and a half ago when the City%u2019s Public Development Corporation, Rose Associate^, the developer, and HHC originally began negotiating a lease for the hospital agency to be the anchor tenant in the new development, rent was targeted at $22 a square foot. Hie City has agreed to fund additional capital costs arising from tenant improvements in the space and annual costs for an additional $15 sq. ft. A memo circulated at the meeting from Paul Dickstein, budget director of the Mayor%u2019s Office of Management reiterated the City%u2019s financial commitments.Public Development Corporation President Jim Stuckey, present at the meeting in Manhattan, urged the board members to consider the affects of economic development for the City in casting their vote and defended the site as the most appropriate for the agency-%u201cWe have a long laundry list of companies that have left New York City,%u201d he said in addressing the issue of economic development. %u201cHHC conducted a pretty exhaustive search for new space long before PDC was brought in. From an office development point of view we are putting a project on 16 acres of land that for 20 years has been unused and deteriorating,%u201d he said. Stuckey describeddeveloper Jonathan Rose as having %u201ca track record unmatched by many developers,%u201d and stressed the importance of the board%u2019s decision in the City obtaining Federal Urban Development Action Grant (UDAG) money for the project.Diane Lacy, the HHC board member who cast one of the dissenting votes questioned the City%u2019s commitment to the project in light of the possibility of another fiscal crisis. %u201cPrior plans at that site in the Seventies had to be dropped. At any time this commitment the City has made could be withdrawn due to a fiscal crisis,%u201d she said.Brother Patrick Lochrane, another HHC board member, raised the question of social responsibility of the board in voting on theW e have a long laundry list ofcompanies that have left the city.HHC conducted an exhaustivesearch for new space long beforePDC was brought in.resolution. %u201cI believe this board has to show social concern. I see gentrification in Brooklyn and eventually all low-income housing will be knocked out,%u201d he said in asking the board not to approve the resolution.Board vice-chairman Bruce Barron suggested an alternative method of approaching the question. %u201cWe as a board have our concern running this corporation and we have enough trouble doing that. If this move will cost the corporation more money than any other proposal, I cannot see it justified, but questions of housing and economic development are tangential to our discussion,%u201d he said.HHC, which operates the city%u2019s municipal hospitals, now has its central administrative operations spread in four locations throughout the city. It is planning to move into Atlantic Terminal with a lease for approximately 25 years. Rose, who is hoping to receive $16.41 million in money from an Urban Development Action Grant (UDAG) needed this formal commitment from HHC in order to activate bank loans already in place for the project, says that this commitment would fulfill a requirement of private financial commitment needed to qualify for the Federal funding. The last round of UDAG awards for the year will be made in midSeptember.Local Development CorporationsAre Still Waiting For Mayor%u2019s FundsBY ROB TAYLORBrooklyn%u2019s local development corporations (LDC) are still waiting to hear whether Mayor Ed Koch will heed their appeals to find additional city funding for their commercial street revitalization programs.The neighborhood commercial revitalization groups, which have organized under the banner of the Brooklyn Commercial Revitalization Coalition, had expected an answer to their request by early August. But on Aug. 20, according to Ed O%u2019Brien, the executive director of Revitalization of the Southern Area of the Slope (ROSAS), the mayor%u2019s office had not answered their requests.The LDC%u2019s had expected to receive money from Borough President Howard Golden%u2019s City budget discretionary fund, as they had in years past, but only after negotiations over the budget in June, they learned that because of budget cutbacks they were not included. The LDC%u2019s do receive assistance from the City%u2019s Office of Business Development and many also are recipients of State grant money.At Golden%u2019s request, some Coalition members met with staff members of Brooklyn Economic Development Corporation (BEDC) July 29 to see if that agency could provide any assistance. BEDC received approximately $1 million from Golden%u2019s total ot $2.9 million discretionary fund. After the meeting, however, the coalition organizers said that no financial assistance would be available through the economic development organization.While money from the current fiscal year%u2019s budget is still waiting to be unlocked, the LDC%u2019s are now working on budgets for thenext fiscal year that begins July 1, 1987. O%u2019Brien says that he is not anticipating any funds from the borough president next year, but says he still plans to lobby Golden. %u201cFiscally it will have no impact on our current situation,%u201d he says.The Budget Committee of CB6 will begin reviewing the proposals by local LDC%u2019s for their 1988 fiscal year budgets on Sept. 9. On the agenda will be the budgets for the Merchants Association of Smith Street, ROSAS, the Park Slope 5th Avenue LDC, and the Van Brunt Street Merchants Association. %u2014 R .T.Antic Is In SeptemberComing in September will be the twelfth annual Atlantic Antic, which Antic Director Jill Kelly promises will be %u201cbigger and better than ever.%u201dThe mile-and-a-quarter long street festival will be held on September 28, and feature floats, balloons, clowns, bands, information booths for various interest groups, food, games, rides, neighborhood vendors, and more.
