DOB Zoning Challenge — 546 Gulf Avenue, Staten Island (Amazon)

DOB Zoning Challenge for 546 Gulf Avenue, Staten Island (Amazon Distribution Facility)

This zoning challenge to the Department of Buildings for the Amazon distribution facility proposed at 546 Gulf Avenue on Staten Island raises the question of whether the facility is categorized in the appropriate use group. The challenge looks at the distinction between warehouses and motor freight stations and their respective use groups in the Zoning Resolution. Also highlighted in the challenge is the lack of information provided by the Applicant that is required in the ZD1. The challenge requests the DOB to ask the Applicant to submit a new ZD1 with the required information.
