What benefit is there for renters who live in a Landmark District?
• Renters receive the benefit of living in a stable neighborhood where the property is well maintained and the neighbors show concern for the neighborhood. Renters are protected from rapid changes in the environment, from over-development by unconcerned builders, from over-building which brings noise, dust and unsightly construction barriers, overhead sheds and disruption to our sense of peace, and quite. There will still be some neighbors who refuse to curb their pets, fail to throw their trash and newspapers in the proper receptacles, etc. It is not a perfect world. But the vast majority of our neighbors chose to live in the Carroll Gardens because of its respectful community feel.
