The Federal Hill skyscraper got a key approval last night:

Zammiello came before the council’s Public Works Committee last night to get the OK to buy the air rights from the city for $178,000. Two weeks ago, the committee had approved his request to buy the rights to build underneath Bradford Street for $469,000.

But the air rights approval was delayed at the Jan. 29 meeting because of the opposition of Councilman Seth Yurdin, who was able to derail the proposal because of the absence of two committee members, Balbina Young and John J. Igliozzi.
