A Brooklyn judge has once again blocked the city from opening a new homeless shelter in Crown Heights.

The shelter for 100 senior men was supposed to open last month on Bergen Street, but a group of residents filed a lawsuit saying the neighborhood already has too many shelters. Brooklyn Supreme Court Judge Katherine Levine on Wednesday questioned whether the city had conducted a meaningful fair-share analysis, as required by the City Charter. She also questioned whether the city had provided enough information about alternative sites that were considered.

After a lengthy hearing, the judge discussed the case with lawyers for the city and Crown Heights residents behind closed doors in her chambers for half an hour, and subsequently instructed them to negotiate a deal, while extending a temporary restraining order against the shelter.

“The judge wants to be able to resolve this as quickly as she can so that all parties can find some measure of — I guess I want to say 'success' here,” said Jacqueline McMickens, who represents the residents.

She declined to discuss the negotiations.

This site is one of the first in Mayor de Blasio's plan to build 90 new sheltersover the next five years. A city spokesman says they remain committed to opening it. The next hearing is set for the end of this month.
