401 Maine Avenue setback variance

Description

Ben Wortman Construction LLC sought variances allowing a 39-foot front building setback instead of the 15-foot maximum, and a 0-foot parking setback instead of the required 25 feet.

Impact summary

Buildings sit farther from the street than the walkable pattern envisions, but the site gains parking and avoids rear congestion.
