According to a Committee source, new street numbers have been assigned relative to the proposed development.
Number 362 Ovington, the parsonage, will no longer exist after the limestone is demolished.

The proposed 72-condo development will be Number 378 Ovington.
The Sunday school building will be Number 7016 Fourth Avenue.
