Coney West (Parcel A)
All the tax lots shown can hold about 510–650 homes under the zoning maximum for qualifying affordable housing. The project uses only part of them. The top of that range is set by the dwelling unit limit (ZR 23-52); qualifying senior housing is exempt from it and could hold up to about 730. The City's LIFT tracker lists 505 homes.
None of the City documents checked gives the tracker's 505. EDC said in 2025 the site would hold 500 or more homes; in May 2026 it said the selected developer plans about 550, 25% of them affordable.

What City documents say
Facts from City documents that bear on the figures below. Each is quoted in the sources, and each speaks as of its document's date.
The project uses part of the land shown
The City's 2025 request for proposals describes the site as about 76,200 sq ft on Block 7071, Lots 100 and '123A': all of Lot 100 and most of Lot 123. A small part of Lot 123 goes to the neighboring Seaside Park site. The figures here are for both whole lots.
Developer chosen; sale terms heard June 2026
EDC selected Rybak Development for about 550 homes (25% affordable) and at least 160 public parking spaces. The sale's business terms were scheduled for a Brooklyn Borough Board hearing on June 2, 2026.
Now a parking lot; public parking to be replaced
The site is currently an overflow parking lot near the ballpark; the plan includes public parking to replace it.
Floor area can be shared with Parcel B
Under the Special Coney Island District, floor area from Parcels A and B may be placed anywhere within those two parcels, so Parcel A's own zoning figure is not a hard cap.
Part of a 1,500-home Coney West plan
EDC's 2025 plan for the remaining City-owned Coney Island West sites totals about 1,500 homes. Parcel A is the first site; the rest are listed separately in the tracker.
Lot 100 is held by the Parks Department
Lot 100's owner of record is the Parks Department; the lot was among those in the Parks Department's 1999-2000 ballpark approval at Steeplechase Park.
What can legally go here
Floor area follows exactly from the Zoning Resolution. Homes are a range, because unit size and building efficiency are choices.

Homes, as a range
| Case | Homes | How |
|---|---|---|
| Low | 512 | 438,652 sq ft × 0.7 ÷ 599 sq ft |

| High | 650 | 441,947 sq ft × 0.85 ÷ 514 sq ft = 730, capped at 441,947 ÷ 680 (ZR 23-52) |
Floor area × efficiency ÷ average home size. Efficiency 0.7–0.85; average home 514–599 sq ft. Assumptions and their basis.
Some figures are shown as a span because the Zoning Resolution sets different limits depending on a condition public data do not settle: whether Coney West land outside Parcels A to F (Ocean Way, Parachute Way and the West 20th Street extension) adds residential floor area (ZR 131-321 sets ratios only for the parcels, and ZR 131-132 treats the ways as street lines).
What binds first
Flood hazard
All of the site is in FEMA's 2015 Preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Map 1% annual chance floodplain (zone AE). NYC uses this map for flood-resistant construction rules. Flood-resistant construction shapes the ground floor and can reduce usable floor area.
What the neighborhood asked for
Brooklyn Community Board 13's formal requests to the City, from its annual Statement of Community District Needs and Budget Requests.

What gets in the way
Flags are flags, not verdicts. Each comes from a public layer, named in the sources.
- Hazard
In the 1% annual chance floodplain (2015 preliminary map)
All of the site is in FEMA's 2015 Preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Map 1% annual chance floodplain (zone AE). NYC uses this map for flood-resistant construction rules.
- Hazard
In the 1% annual chance floodplain (effective 2007 map)
All of the site is in the 1% annual chance floodplain on FEMA's effective 2007 Flood Insurance Rate Map, which flood insurance still uses (MapPLUTO flags it too).
- Hazard
Stormwater flooding in a moderate storm (2050s)
DEP's Stormwater Flood Map (moderate stormwater flood with 2050 sea level rise) shows nuisance flooding (4 in to 1 ft) on about 5% of the site (3,750 sq ft).
- Hazard
Stormwater flooding in an extreme storm (2080s)
DEP's Stormwater Flood Map (extreme stormwater flood with 2080 sea level rise) shows flooding on about 99% of the site (77,500 sq ft), nearly all of it future high tides.
- Caution
(E) designation E-229
On lot 123 (1 of the 2 lots), an environmental requirement (hazardous materials) must be satisfied before the Department of Buildings issues permits for new development.
- Caution
1 of 2 lots not recorded as City-owned
MapPLUTO records block 7071 lot 123 with no ownership type, not as City property (owner recorded as “NYC ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION”).
- Caution
Floor area depends on a condition public data do not settle
The Zoning Resolution sets different limits depending on a condition that public data do not settle here, so some figures are shown as a span. The note under the floor area figures says which condition, and why.
- Note
In the Special Coney Island District
Sets residential FAR by parcel in Coney West (4.8/5.8 on Parcels A to D, 4.6/5.5 on Parcels E and F) and caps community facilities at 2.0 in Coney West and Coney North. Its floor area rules are applied above (ZR 131-321, 131-322, 23-22).
Nearest subway station: Coney Island-Stillwell Av (D F N Q), 0.4 mi in a straight line.
What this doesn't account for
Public data and the zoning text answer the questions above. These need information that is not public, or a decision that belongs to the City.
- Public land use review (ULURP). Selling or leasing City land, or approving a housing project on it, generally goes through ULURP (community board, borough president, City Planning Commission, City Council), and this estimate does not presume the outcome.
- Disposition of City property (Charter 384 / UDAAP). Transferring the land needs Mayoral approval under Charter Sec. 384 and, for HPD projects, usually Urban Development Action Area designation and project approval under NY General Municipal Law Article 16.
- Environmental review (CEQR/SEQRA). Any discretionary approval, disposition or City funding triggers CEQR/SEQRA review, which can require mitigation (e.g. for hazardous materials, noise or historic resources) or reshape the project.
- (E) designations. A lot with an (E) designation or environmental restrictive declaration for hazardous materials, air quality or noise cannot receive building permits until the Office of Environmental Remediation signs off.
- Subsurface and site conditions. Unknown soil, rock, groundwater and contamination can shrink or eliminate cellars and add foundation and cleanup costs, and HPD requires every project to investigate and, if needed, remediate contamination.
- Deed restrictions and reverter clauses. Land the City bought or sold may carry deed restrictions or reverter clauses limiting its use, which must be checked in title records (ACRIS) and DCAS's deed-restriction database.
- Parkland alienation. If a site is municipal parkland, it cannot be sold or used for housing without an act of the State Legislature signed by the Governor.
- Current occupants, uses and agency plans. Many City-owned lots are in active use or assigned to an agency, or have funded capital projects, and this estimate does not reflect relocation needs or agency plans (check COLP and the Capital Commitment Plan).
- Mapped streets, easements and utilities. Mapped-but-unbuilt ('paper') streets, sewer and water easements and utility lines can take land out of the buildable area, and no permit may be issued for a building in the bed of a mapped street.
- Street access. A lot with no frontage on a mapped street cannot get a building permit on its own and must be combined with a neighboring lot or have access mapped.
- Landmarks review. Sites that are individual landmarks or inside historic districts need Landmarks Preservation Commission approval, which can limit demolition, height and bulk.
- Flood-resistant construction. Sites in the 1% annual chance floodplain (or the 0.2% shaded X-Zone for critical facilities) must meet Building Code Appendix G, whose elevation and floodproofing rules can cost usable ground-floor and cellar space.
- Airport height limits. Near JFK, LaGuardia and Floyd Bennett Field, zoning flight-obstruction surfaces cap building height, and tall structures anywhere need FAA notice.
- State and federal funding conditions. Federal or State money brings its own requirements (e.g. HUD environmental review under 24 CFR Part 58, Davis-Bacon prevailing wages, Section 3 hiring) that can change cost, timing and program.
- Zoning capacity is a ceiling, not a plan. The figures show what zoning allows, and actual HPD projects often build less, for example to fit neighborhood context, a community facility or funding limits.
