Friends and neighbors,
Village Independent Democrats is holding a demonstration against St. Vincent’s Hospital’s plan to build a 500-unit luxury condo tower without any affordable housing:
Wednesday, Nov. 14, 6pm
170 W 12th Street, corner 7th Ave.
Bring signs demanding affordable housing.
Following the demonstration, St. Vincent’s Hospital will host a “Community Working Group” at 6:30pm in its Cronin Cafeteria, 170 W. 12th Street. This meeting is open to the public and provides an opportunity to hear from the hospital about their proposed luxury housing, as well as to ask questions and provide feedback. Elected officials’ and Community Board representatives, who must ultimately vote on this plan, also participate in these meetings.
