The hopes of renovating the historic Mt. Sinai hospital at 4th and Reed have been all but dashed with a new proposal presented last week by the Concordia Group

Instead of renovating and utilizing the existing Mt. Sinai hospital structure, the plans now include the demolition of the entire building to make way for 95 townhouses.

There will be interior courtyards with green space, which can also be accessed by the public .

Concerns from the Dickinson Square West Zoning Board included a lack of landscaping and green space and the design’s lack of cohesion with the neighborhood’s existing row-homes.

The townhouses are going to be federalist-style, wrapped in brick, with an incorporation of brownstone on the first-level of some homes.

Originally, Mt. Sinai was to be renovated into upwards of 200 apartments.

What do you think of the new plans for Mt. Sinai?
