I don't think they will be successful. 250 South aka 227 Cherry is rising nearby. If they failed to stop an 80 floor tower, this will rise as well, along with the other proposals in the area.

But yeah I don't get the NIMBY mentality. Now, while those NYHA towers do have units that are generally pricey, it still looks like a hood. Towers like this will help to bandaid the 1950's brown projects that look like they belong in the Bronx.

At this point in time, anything South of 125th Street is ripe for development, and there should be no surprise when towers like this spring up. If these people want crap, tell them to move to Irvington NJ or on the fringes of JFK. Ungrateful folks I'm telling ya.
