  • Regional Rail – Midtown Links

    Regional Rail – Midtown Links

    ______________________________________________________________________________________ Regional Rail – Midtown Links Converting the region’s commuter rail lines into a regional rail system, with frequent service and integrated fares would greatly expand the utility of these lines. The single most important step is to connect the region’s two main railway stations: Grand Central Terminal (1) and Penn Station (2). Capacity on Manhattan’s Amtrak West Side Line (3) is limited by a single track tunnel under the West Side rail yards. A new double track connection at 10th Avenue and 34th Street would allow this line to enter the north side of Penn Station, permitting through operation with the 33rd Street tunnels under the East River. With this flow-through operation the West Side yard could be eliminated, avoiding the need for a deck and greatly reducing the cost of new development. The two existing Hudson River rail tunnels (4), severely limit capacity from the west. In the near term some capacity can be gained by through-operation at Penn Station, where all trains using these tunnels would continue on the 32nd Street tunnels under the East River, eliminating conflicts and delays. New tunnels (5) would double capacity across the river, and provide needed redundancy. The new tunnels would connect to existing platforms on the south side of Penn Station and would lead to the new connection to Grand Central. All trains using this connection would flow through from New Jersey to Grand Central, continuing north to the Bronx and beyond. A shuttle service (6) would link the disused West Side Yard with Penn Station, providing a low cost link for access to new West Side development.

Cultural Resources: Historic and Archaeological 7.1 Definitions of Terms Before one can develop a more complete understanding of cultural resources, it is important to understand the nature of these resources and the terms used in pertinent sections of the Central Pine Barrens Plan. Accordingly, the following terms used in this section are defined as follows: Aboriginal - Pertaining to native inhabitants (i.e., the original Native American inhabitants of Long Island). Adaptive Reuse - The retrofitting and preservation, as opposed to destruction, of an historic structure for a new purpose, (e.g., the use of an historic residence or for an office.). rchaeological Resources - Material remains of past habitations or activities which may be below or ove ground. Cultural resource - As defined by the National Park Service in its "Cultural Resources Management Guidelines," cultural resources are: Those tangible and intangible aspects of cultural systems, both living and dead, that are valued by or representative of a given culture or that contain information about a culture . .. and [they] include but are not limited to sites, structures, districts, objects and artifacts, and historic documents associated with or representative of peoples, cultures, and human activities and events, either in the present or in the past. Cultural resources also can include the primary written and verbal data for interpreting and understanding those tangible resources. As commonly defined, these may be archaeological (that is, found beneath the surface) or above-ground resources. hese may include, but are not limited to: * 1. Components of structures and features (houses, mills, piers, fortifications, earthworks, ditches and mounds, roads, etc.).

    Preliminary Analysis of Benefits and Costs of Constructing and Maintaining Midday Car Storage Facilities for the LIRR

    INSTITUTE FOR RATIONAL URBAN MOBILITY, INC. George Haikalis One Washington Square Village, Suite 5D President New York, NY 10012 212-475-3394 [email protected] www.irum.org Memo: To: Meta Brunzema and Dan Gutman From: George Haikalis, President, Institute for Rational Urban Mobility, Inc. Date: May 21, 2007 Re: Preliminary Analysis of Benefits and Costs of Constructing and Maintaining Midday Car Storage Facilities for the LIRR Thanks for the opportunity to share some thoughts on the future of the LIRR West Side Yard and Sunnyside Yard A. These very preliminary findings are presented in the hope that a more detailed analysis of these concepts will be undertaken by MTA, which has the information and resources to explore them more fully. I. Key Findings: (1) MTA could maximize its gain from the sale of the LIRR West Side Yard if this property were cleared and sold as raw real estate for development. This gain would be further increased if two tracks were retained in the yard, and a new platform constructed, permitting a rail link between the yard site and Penn Station. In total, MTA’s gain – ranging from $1.0 billion to $2.0 billion – far exceeds the “present worth” of the annual incremental operating cost of sending cars now stored in this yard to existing yards further east in Queens and Long Island. This increased operating cost is estimated at $8.2 million per year. (2) MTA could reduce the cost of its LIRR East Side Access Project by dropping its plan to construct a new midday railcar storage yard at Yard A, just north of Amtrak’s Sunnyside Yard in Queens.
