Significantly improving soft access to and from vehicles for citizens Allowing vehicles to pull in from the roadway when loading/unloading, which will eliminate verbal altercations with other frustrated drivers. Reduce noise pollution generated from frustrated drivers honking their horns. Eliminate the need to squeeze between tightly parked vehicles to access rideshares / taxis. Reduce roadway blockages for emergency vehicles.

Dear NYC Department of Transportation, I am writing to request the establishment of a Neighborhood Loading Zone directly in front of 205 East 85th Street (The Brompton), between Third and Second Avenue. This location presents ongoing safety, accessibility, and traffic-flow concerns due to the unique conditions on the block. Vehicles regularly stop in the travel lane for passenger pick-ups, drop-offs, deliveries, and accessibility transportation because there is no clearly designated curb space available directly in front of the building entrance. The curb is typically occupied bumper-to-bumper by parked vehicles, making safe curb access extremely difficult. As a result, passengers are frequently forced to enter or exit vehicles directly from the roadway. This creates unsafe conditions for residents, visitors, pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers alike, particularly for elderly individuals, people with disabilities, wheelchair users, and those utilizing medical or accessibility transportation services. The issue is compounded by several site-specific conditions: • A CitiBike station and active bike lane are located immediately adjacent to the building, increasing the risk of conflicts between cyclists and vehicles stopping in active traffic lanes.• The block experiences frequent congestion caused by double parking, rideshare activity, deliveries, and passenger loading.• Vehicles stopping in traffic to load or unload often create backups, excessive honking, reduced visibility, and hazardous roadway conditions.• FDNY Engine 22 and Ladder 13 operate nearby, and congestion on this block can interfere with emergency vehicle movement when returning westbound to their station.• Building staff have limited visibility to vehicles stopping east of the entrance, creating operational and security concerns. A Neighborhood Loading Zone would provide a practical and targeted solution by creating a clearly designated curb space for active loading and unloading, taxi and car-service pick-up/drop-off, accessibility transportation, and commercial deliveries. This would reduce double parking, improve traffic flow, enhance cyclist and pedestrian safety, and provide safer access for residents and visitors. Importantly, this request is not intended as a private convenience for a single building, but rather as a safety and traffic-management improvement for the block and surrounding neighborhood. The designation would help organize existing activity that is already occurring daily and would reduce conflicts between parked vehicles, moving traffic, cyclists, emergency vehicles, and pedestrians. Given the existing traffic studies and prior discussions regarding this location, we respectfully request DOT’s consideration and support for implementing a Neighborhood Loading Zone at this site. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

I have a business located at 4906 5th Ave, Brooklyn, New York, and I am interested in starting the process of obtaining a loading zone in front of my store. Currently, delivery trucks are forced to double park when making deliveries, which blocks traffic and creates congestion in the area. I would like to know the necessary steps, requirements, and any applications needed to request a designated loading zone at this location.
