I'm really too blown away by this news to spin it as yet another sign of the need for a Planning Study. FYI, Linden is not in CB9, which ends at Clarkson. But still, we have tons of R7-1 to offer. Just look at 626 Flatbush. And don't forget a 23 story whopper is coming to Nostrand below Church Ave. I guess it's time to settle in for a new normal.
384 Units. Market? Probably. I suppose some of you can hip me to the facts?

For fun, the 23-story coming to Nostrand:
And while we're talking south of CB9, let's keep rolling with Clarkson/Nostrand:
How many more mega-projects in the pipeline? With dozens of new projects having surfaced this calendar year, I think it's safe to say the ship has left the station. All aboard?

Community Facility requires either educational, health care, religious and not-for-profit institutions to locate in residence districts in New York City. So while developers always do target it as rent-able, a true community center falls under the education umbrella so there is room for hope.
The architect will have a lot of fun (it will be miserable) passing zoning for this one. There is an odd lot that runs behind the filed location, which means the rear set-backs will suck a lot, and on a narrow street the front one is no joke at that height either. So unless they are buying lot 84 and merging with it, it will be a tough job to work.
A "true community center" would have to outbid all of the other allowed uses. So, I wouldn't be optimistic.
Also, Bedford between Lenox and Caton.
