3115 E 42nd St in Ericcson is for sale, which is the former church that burned down ~ 5 years ago.

Not sure why they show a rendering of four townhouses, given that the parcel is zoned R1A. This would be a great spot for a Form Follows Finance Fourplex with a couple storefronts, if it was zoned C1 instead of R1A.

Yikes....kinda takes over the surrounding built environment! I feel bad for the current residents but otherwise it's a neat adaptive reuse of the existing built environment (as opposed to an adaptive reuse of an existing building).

Should fit in much better once the different materials are up. It breaks up the monotony quite a bit and makes it feel like a number of smaller buildings.

"Looming" is appropriate here. Hope it turns out better.

On one hand, this building meets the definition of looming. On the other hand,,,,

Oh, I'm not complaining about the density at all. I'd welcome more. It's the way the building wraps around that small corner structure, like Sauron watching over the land...If the exterior is meant to visually break up the massing that should help.

And the iceberg is maybe not the best example as scientists aren't saying it's due to climate change. It could be ordinary activity. There are plenty of other examples to point to such as changes in weather patterns, overall ice recession, &c. I get mildly annoyed when people cite examples that aren't (yet) backed by science as it discredits the overall message.

Though on that particular subject I thought they said that the Larsen ice break is potentially a harbinger of things to come that could be more directly related to man-driven climate change, and a MUCH bigger risk to flooding/sea level rise.

But, when these ice shelves break off and melt, sea level actually goes down slightly, not up. I don't see how people don't get this.

Depends on if it's land ice or sea ice.

Last time I checked, ice shelves are by definition over water not land.

Oops, was thinking ice sheet/ice shelf could be used interchangeably, but no you're right.

You're right about sea ice, but the worrisome thing about sea ice collapse is that it holds back much larger areas of land ice. Larsen is a relatively low-risk shelf for sea level rise because it doesn't touch upon major land ice shelves. But the same process that undermined it could have impacts on much more consequential areas.
