Bloomberg looks to restrict storefront sizes

  Eyewitness NewsNEW YORK (WABC) -- The Bloomberg administration is targeting storefront sizes on the Upper West Side.

The mayor is pushing a plan to limit sizes so big chains won't be so tempted to fill an entire block.

Banks and big-box pharmacies are protesting the plan, which would restrict new stores to nothing bigger than 40 feet across.

Bank storefronts would be limited to 25 feet.
