ReThinkNYC Requests that ReThinkNYC Proposals be Treated as Alternatives to be Studied ReThinkNYC • New York, NY • August,20 2020 Reimagined Penn Station’s Main Hall. Digital Rendering by NOVA Concepts. “The Pennsylvania Station in New York is like some vast basilica of old that towers above the terror of the dark as bulwark and protection to the soul.” Langston Hughes 1. Introduction: ReThinkNYC Requests that ReThinkNYC Proposals be Treated as Alternatives to be Studied 7th Avenue Facade rendering by Jeff Stikeman RethinkNYC submits the following supplemental statement and proposals to their July 20, 2020 preliminary written and verbal submissions which were made in response to the Empire State Development Corps Draft Scope of Work (“DSOW”) and request for Public Comment. RethinkNYC asks that this supplementary submission, which incorporates and adds to the prior submissions(with any changes noted), be read as a unified document. RethinkNYC requests that the proposals submitted today be considered as an “alternative(s) to be studied” as set forth on page 53 of the DSOW. While RethinkNYC’s more specific criticism’s are set forth immediately below, RethinkNYC’s overarching criticism and reason for sponsoring alternatives is that the proposed Empire State Complex fails to sufficiently unlock the potential that a modernized Penn Station and transit network would have on the economy, the region and nation’s ecology, aesthetics, fair housing and accessability to the job market, among many other advantages. While the DSOW acknowledges other infrastructure projects — Gateway, Sunnyside Yards and the Port Authority Bus Terminal — it does not coordinate or harmonize these proposals in a way that maximizes their impacts for the region. -

Western Rail Yard
Chapter 10: Neighborhood Character A. INTRODUCTION Neighborhood character is an amalgam of several elements that give an area its distinctive personality and help distinguish it from other neighborhoods. These components include: land use; street layout; scale, type, and style of development; historic features; patterns and volumes of traffic; noise levels; and any other physical or social characteristics. However, not all of these elements affect neighborhood character in all cases; a neighborhood usually draws its character from a few determining elements. Using information presented in other technical chapters of this EIS, this chapter examines neighborhood character at the three project sites and the associated surrounding study areas, and analyzes the effects of the Proposed Actions on neighborhood character in these areas. PRINCIPAL CONCLUSIONS The Proposed Actions would have a beneficial effect on neighborhood character on the project sites and in the surrounding study areas. Development of Western Rail Yard would fulfill a long- standing public policy to promote productive use of the site with a lively mix of uses, open spaces, and streets that would complement and support the development in the Hudson Yards area and West Chelsea. Construction of permanently affordable housing on the Tenth Avenue and Ninth Avenue Sites would support the Clinton neighborhood by emphasizing its residential character and the mixed-income character of its residents. DEVELOPMENT SITE The Proposed Actions would change the character of the Development Site, and this change would be, on balance, decidedly beneficial. The site, which presents a blank wall to the surrounding neighborhood on two sides and transportation/maintenance uses where it can be seen, would be transformed with a mix of residential and commercial uses and open spaces, clearly visible and accessible to the public. -

The relatively few miles of improved road were around towns and cities (a road was “improved” if it was graded). That year, Carl Fisher (developer of Miami Beach and the Indianapolis Speedway, among other things) conceived a trans-continental highway. He called it the “Coast-to-Coast Rock Highway.” It would be finished in time for the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition and would run from the exposition’s host city; San Francisco, to New York City. Two auto industry tycoons played major roles in the highway’s development: Frank Seiberling - president of Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., and Henry Joy - president of the Packard Motor Car Company. It was Henry Joy who came up with the idea of naming the highway after POTUS Abraham Lincoln. On July 1st 1913, the Lincoln Highway Association was officially incorporated. -

Conceptual Analysis for Neighborhood Parks by Special Permit
Appendix A.3 Conceptual Analysis for Neighborhood Parks The proposed zoning text amendment analyzed in this FGEIS includes a City Planning Commission (CPC) authorization in Zoning Resolution (ZR) Section 93-23 (Height and Setback in Hell’s Kitchen (Subdistrict F) of the Special Hudson Yards District). Under the proposed Section 93-23, the CPC may authorize the distribution of floor area without regard to zoning district boundaries and height and setback modifications within C2-7A zoning districts within a portion of the proposed Special Hudson Yards District. More specifically, the authorization provisions would apply to developments or enlargements on zoning lots divided by district boundaries that are wholly or partially within a designated portion of the Hell’s Kitchen Subdistrict and provide publicly accessible open areas adjacent to or over the Lincoln Tunnel ramps. The Lincoln Tunnel ramps include the Lincoln Tunnel Expressway and Dyer Avenue, both of which are owned by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ). The directly affected area consists of the C2-7A zoning district proposed to be mapped over Subarea F1 of Subdistrict F of the Special Hudson Yards District. The proposed authorization would allow sites within this area to exceed the underlying height limit of 135 feet and reach a maximum height of 200 feet. The authorization would also allow floor area to be distributed without regard to zoning district boundaries. The directly affected area is located adjacent to properties that are proposed to be rezoned to C6-4 zoning districts as part of the Proposed Action. The increased height limit and ability to transfer floor area across zoning district boundaries allowed under the authorization is intended to facilitate the development of publicly accessible open spaces on development sites in Hell’s Kitchen. -
