Mortgage Solutions is the listed owner of the parcel, which is currently zoned for RT-4. While it is unclear if the owner will seek a zoning amendment, RT-4 can accommodate two-flats, townhouses, low-density apartment buildings, and single family homes. RT-4 may also allow for a floor area ratio (FAR) of 1.2, whereby any new development’s square footage may be 20 percent larger than the lot itself. The RT-4 zoning designation also permits a maximum height of 38 feet for residential projects.
