  • Downtown Far Rockaway Roadmap for Action Fall 2018 Update
    Downtown Far Rockaway Roadmap for Action fall 2018 Update In 2015, Council Member Donovan Richards Jr. convened the Downtown Far Rockaway Working Group, starting a new chapter for the neighborhood. A vision of a revitalized Downtown Far Rockaway emerged, calling for smart and community-driven investments by the City, and culminating in a 2016 letter to Mayor de Blasio detailing the working group’s recommendations. In response, through extensive community and stakeholder engagement, the City released the Downtown Far Rockaway Roadmap for Action in Summer 2016, which addressed the community’s needs through strategies focused on land use, housing, transportation and public space, economic development, community services, and culture. Together, the Far Rockaway community and the City have made significant progress over the last year. This update presents the City’s progress to date and what’s ahead for Downtown Far Rockaway. Progress by the numbers 600+ 18 small 30+ vacant and affordable business deteriorating housing units storefronts Zombie Homes in development improved identified for reactivation Implementation The City continues to work with the Downtown Far Rockaway community, pairing new investments with a rezoning that builds on the neighborhood’s existing assets to spur private investment. This update highlights some of the progress the City and its community partners have made since the release of the Roadmap for Action in 2016. In September 2017, the City Council approved a set of land use actions for Downtown Far Rockaway, including a neighborhood-wide rezoning to allow for new commercial space, community facility space, and residential development, a portion of which will be permanently affordable.

  • The Downtown Far Rockaway Roadmap for Action
    Downtown Far Rockaway Roadmap for Action investing in the Downtown Village Downtown Far Rockaway is poised for a transformation. Major new investments will better connect the neighborhood, increase economic opportunity, and improve the quality of life for the people who call the area home. Based on feedback from community leaders, business owners, and residents, the de Blasio administration is investing in Downtown Far Rockaway’s existing infrastructure—as well as supporting new commercial and residential developments—to strengthen and revitalize this community. The backbone of a successful downtown is the people who call it home. The de Blasio administration is committed to creating affordable housing for its residents by pursuing creative opportunities to encourage the development of new mixed-income housing with services and amenities. With an eye to the future, we are investing in and revitalizing commercial corridors including Central Avenue, Mott Avenue, and Beach 20th Street to support small businesses and draw a new mix of retail offerings that will bring new services to the area. Our initiatives will improve the neighborhood’s connectivity by expanding pedestrian walkways and public spaces, as well as many other ambitious and exciting new projects. Despite its unique character and history, the area has experienced decades of disinvestment. The Downtown Far Rockaway Roadmap for Action is focused on strategic investments to build on the community’s existing infrastructure and support Downtown Far Rockaway’s growth as a vibrant neighborhood with affordable housing, commerce, and local industry. Smart, community- driven investment will better connect the neighborhood, increase economic opportunity, and improve the quality of life for the people who call the area home.
