  • 3.8 Neighborhood Character (FEIS)
    125th Street Corridor Rezoning and Related Actions EIS New York City Department of City Planning 3.8 NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTER INTRODUCTION As defined in the CEQR Technical Manual, neighborhood character is considered to be an amalgam of the various elements that give a neighborhood its distinct personality. These elements can include land use, urban design, visual resources, historic resources, socioeconomic conditions, traffic, and noise, as well as any other physical or social characteristics that help to distinguish the community in question from another. The proposed action is anticipated to result in changes to the neighborhood character of the 125th Street corridor. These changes are considered to be beneficial to the overall character of the corridor and would not constitute significant adverse impacts to neighborhood character. According to the CEQR Technical Manual, an assessment of neighborhood character is generally needed when the action would exceed preliminary thresholds in any one of the following areas of technical analysis: land use, urban design and visual resources, historic resources, socioeconomic conditions, transportation, or noise. An assessment is also appropriate when the action would have moderate effects on several of the aforementioned areas. Potential effects on neighborhood character may include: Land Use. Development resulting from a proposed action could alter neighborhood character if it introduces new land uses, conflicts with land use policy or other public plans for the area, changes land use character, or generates significant land use impacts. Socioeconomic Conditions. Changes in socioeconomic conditions have the potential to affect neighborhood character when they result in substantial direct or indirect displacement or addition of population, employment, or businesses; or substantial differences in population or employment density.
