mr. cantor ignored my request for a light well.nclusion -- the thoroughly documented and proper procedures and misrepresentations to city staff, and neighbors, the massive size of the proposed houses and inappropriate design, for example the faÇade of house number 27 with its commercial glass canopy, demonstrate little consideration for the neighbors. please deny this bond as a request to go forward with these plans. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> my name is josiah clark. i wanted to thank you all for being here. your patients on ability to focus after so many hours of this every day. i have lived at 1628 lake street my whole life. our house was built to in 1896. it shares a backyard property line with lot 21. i oppose this project because both of these proposed houses are out of scale with houses on the block and significantly reduce the mid block open space shared with homes on 17th and 18th avenue and on lake street. the open space would be entirely removed. according to the proposed plans removing a wall of s
