Post Author By Evo Plus
Post Date 15/09/2025

Major Eric Adams has proposed three sprawling amendments to the city’s zoning code that he says would transform the Big Apple from a mess of red tape to a “City of Yes.”

The amendments are at making it easier for the public to do business in the city, along with spurring housing development and easing the transition to clean energy. The proposals range from eliminating restrictions on rooftop solar panels and electric vehicle charging infrastructure, to removing antiquated dancing restrictions, to limiting existing parking requirements for new residential development.

“The City of Yes proposals are designed to speed up our

Got a project to propose for The Insider? Please contact Cara Greenberg at caramia447 [at] gmail [dot] com.

Rarely do homeowners get to realize a personal vision as thoroughly as the couple who bought a derelict 19th century wood frame row house and transformed it, with the help of architect Michelle Krochmal of Park Slope-based Filament Architecture Studio, into a playful, colorful homage to early and mid-20th century domestic life.

The architect-client relationship began before they’d even decided whether to buy the 1,700-square-foot house. On the advice of a realtor, the prospective homeowners came to Krochmal with a burning

A Scottish couple is selling their .9 million medieval castle after 9 years. They say isn’t haunted, but ‘benevolent energies’ live there.

A couple bought a Scottish castle nine years ago and turned it into their home and a wedding venue.
Now, Amanda Barnes and her husband have listed the medieval property for $3.9 million.
Myres Castle is home to 500 years of history, but to Barnes’ disappointment, no ghosts.

Couples therapist Amanda Barge and her husband Henry moved to Myres Castle in Scotland just before Christmas nine years ago.

Prewar With Marble Coat in Brooklyn Heights Brownstone Asks 9K

A tidy one-bedroom on the penultimate story of a Brooklyn Heights brownstone mixes original details with fun updates, including a minimalist kitchen with white cupboards and a blue counter. It’s located at 21 Monroe Place, an eight-unit co-op in an imposing five-story walkup likely built sometime around the 1870s.

Originally a single-family house of grand proportions, the 25-foot-wide building lost its stoop and distinctive ornament sometime after its early 20th century tax photo was taken. That image shows the house in full Neo-Grec splendor, with stoop intact, mansard roof, pronounced strappy cornice, columns, pediments and dormers as well as robust

Despite it being one of Brooklyn’s biggest and most beloved street fairs, this year’s Atlantic Antic was more of a washout due to heavy rain.

As organizers planned for the big weekend, they left it up to vendors and performers to decide whether or not they would still set up for festival-goers, according to Howard Kolins, acting executive director of the Atlantic Avenue Local Development Corporation (AALDC).

In the end, some of the day’s scheduled entertainment chose to cancel, leaving the Antic without its usual bouncy houses, pony rides and marching bands. Little Amal — a 12-foot-tall puppet depicting a
