From the meeting
At its November 2, 2026 hearing, the Zoning Hearing Board was scheduled to hear City Star Management's special use application for a small indoor entertainment/spectator-participant banquet facility at 170 Allen St. The request was still pending the board's vote. The site and use approval matter because it can drive tenant fit-out, equipment, and related professional work if the use is allowed.
