PETITION

HELP STOP STATE FUNDING FOR THE NEW JEWISH HOME BUILDING AT PARK WEST VILLAGE

Dear Senator Perkins –

As you are aware, the Jewish Home and Hospital for the Aged has applied for funding through New York State’s HEAL program to help finance the development of its planned new building on the parking lot of 792 Columbus Avenue on 100th Street. The Jewish Home only obtained access to this sight through back room land swap with the developers of Columbus Square, Chetrit Development. Columbus Square has already taken away most of the open space at Park West Village and now this deal will replace a planned playground with another tower. We urge you to contact those in charge of funding the HEAL program and tell them to deny the Jewish Home’s application and stop this unwanted development in its tracks.

Sincerely,
