 Tonight, Community Board 2's Land Use Committee will again consider the controversial proposed sale of the Brooklyn Heights Library branch to a developer who plans to demolish the library and replace it with a 36-story (441-foot-tall), 139-unit luxury residential tower, with a new library occupying the ground floor and some space below the ground.

The meeting takes place at 6:30 p.m. in the Founders’ Hall of St. Francis College, 180 Remsen Street (Court and Clinton streets).

At its previous epic four-and-a-half hour hearing in June, the Committee failed to reach an affirmative vote.

Tonight's meeting is NOT a hearing, and it is likely that no time will be available for public comment.
