In reviewing recent renderings of the proposed building on 33-35 Caroline St, on the site of DAndrea’s
pizza, I find the design far too massive and imposing for that site. It stands in stark contrast to the
smaller 2-story buildings that line that street, giving it its character.
Furthermore, the street-level facade of the rendering I saw was entirely incongruent with the retail shops
& bars of that street.
I am certainly open to the idea of new construction at that site, but I hope that you will insist on a more
appropriate design that provides retail & bar fronts at street-level and a redesign that is congruent with
the quaint character of Caroline St.
