No townhomes in the neighborhood just east of City Park.
That was the decision the Manhattan City Commission reached Tuesday night after residents pleaded with officials not to change the neighborhood’s zoning to allow adjacent multi-unit dwellings.
Developer Gavin Schmidt, director of business development at BHS Construction, had petitioned that two lots, one at 300 North 11th St. and the other adjacent at 1020 Leavenworth St., be rezoned from low-density residential to low-density residential attached, which would have allowed the building of townhomes or duplexes.
