Build Right, Not Height — Protect MF-2 Zoning

6,000 SOHIP neighbors standing together to protect our neighborhood's zoning.

MF-2 zoning protects the scale and character of SOHIP — the starter-home neighborhood 6,000 of us call home. A developer wants to build a 16-story, 185-foot tower at 4211 Newton Ave, right in the middle of our homes. We welcome development that follows the rules. This doesn't. Here's how to get involved.
