Stated the wrong address was published in the Section Block Lot on the Peekskill Tax Map — it is someone's house.

Argued the rendering's perspective makes the building look like 5 stories when it is 6, and that quality of life for homeowners will suffer.

Said the project is overwhelming, doesn't fit, should be looked at as townhomes, and will increase traffic with no parking.

Asked why there was no description of the Special Permit and what the application entails, and why it is not part of the Comprehensive Plan.

Called the rendering an amazing improvement, but raised concern about the first-floor daycare and windows potentially having to be covered.

Spoke online against the six-story project across from his Constant Avenue home, citing asbestos abatement worries, horrendous traffic and parking, and claiming hundreds of Facebook comments opposing it. Also argued three minutes is too short for life-altering items.

She submitted an aerial photo of the whole former White Plains Linen complex and said it's misleading to publish a resolution naming only one building when the project covers the entire 400 block of Highland Avenue.

A 70-year resident of the area who says parking is already horrendous and that the project's profitability shouldn't be a consideration — he fears quality of life will go downhill.

Worried about added traffic on her regular route and says contractors appeared not to know Constant Avenue is one-way; she'd rather see townhouses for home ownership than apartments.
