Why this petition matters

Call on New York Elected Officials to Stand With Local Residents and Community Board 8 to Oppose Northwell Health's Massive Development Scheme for Lenox Hill Hospital. 

Northwell Health's $2.5 billion proposal to rebuild Lenox Hill Hospital includes a 436-foot hospital tower, and at least 11 years of active construction.

While we support modernizing Lenox Hill Hospital, Northwell could improve the facility and service without massive tower developments that permanently harm our community.

That's Why Our Community Says:

- NO to granting major zoning law changes that will damage our historic community!

- NO to an unnecessary plan to build a gigantic hospital in NYC where it is not needed!

- NO to 11 years of construction that will cause new traffic and noise problems and create a congestion crisis for decades!

- NO to Northwell's disregard for local businesses that will be destroyed by this scheme!

- NO to Northwell's attempt to mislead us into thinking this is the only way forward!

- NO to Northwell hiding its plans for developing other properties in our neighborhood!

- NO to Northwell's refusal to work with the local community to develop a better plan!
