Honorable Members of the Zoning, Neighborhoods and Development Committee:
I am requesting that the Committee reject the change in zoning to a new Detailed Planned 
Development for a multi-family residential development at 1550 North Prospect Avenue.  
Significant valid reasons follow:
*       Given the size of the lot, the proposed size of the building, and the size of the Goll 
Mansion, the city of Milwaukee’s density standards will be drastically exceeded.
*       Movement of vehicles into and out of the property which include resident and visitor 
cars as well as trucks of varying size given the dimensions of the buildings and lot will 
cause massive congestion on Prospect Avenue.  This will dramatically worsen an already 
bottlenecked area.
*       The placement of the building beyond the crest of the bluff could well damage 
surrounding buildings due to the necessity of massive pile driving.  The environmental 
impact of the proposed building on its neighboring buildings has not been studied.
*       Aesthetically the proposed building does not improve the urban living appeal to young 
professionals, baby boomers, and others.  
After deliberate consideration I am hopeful that you too will reach the conclusion that the 
proposed change in zoning to the Detailed Planned Development be rejected.
							Sincerely,
							Marie E. Weiss
