  • Preservation Plan Outline
    Preservation Plan Outline Buffalo Preservation Plan Program Report on Technical Assistance on the Preservation Plan Process BURA 28-40200 June 7, 2004 The Preservation Plan Outline was prepared by the Advisory Committee and Steering Committee of the Buffalo Preservation Plan Program chaired by Richard Lippes, President of the Preservation Coalition of Erie County. Technical support, writing, and facilitation was provided by Robert Shibley as agent for The Landmark Society of the Niagara Frontier under contract with the Buffalo Urban Renewal Agency. Buffalo Preservation Plan Program Report June 7, 2004 Preservation Plan Outline Executive Summary Towards A Community Preservation Plan. Buffalo needs a Community Preservation Plan to identify and protect historic urban resources in Buffalo and to educate public officials and citizens about the value of our built heritage and what is needed to protect it. A first-phase Preservation Plan Program Outline suggests a four-part strategy for achieving these goals, including: Continuous emphasis on the inventory of historic resources required by local, State and federal law; A multi-part effort designed to protect those resources; Education of a broad range of audiences that influence our ability to inventory and protect historic resources; and, Creation of the administrative, financial and technical capacity to do the first three tasks well. Preservation of the city’s historic resources is important for at least four reasons. Preserving and restoring historic structures, districts and landscapes helps sustain what we might call the “web of urbanism,” the physical environment that supports daily life in the city. Recognizing and interpreting these resources and the stories that go with them gives us an understanding of who we are as a community and gives meaning to life in Buffalo.

  • Syracuse Creekwalk Phase I Connecting Armory Square to Onondaga Lake City of Syracuse, NY
    Department of Engineering PROJECT SUMMARY June 8, 2009 Syracuse Creekwalk Phase I Connecting Armory Square to Onondaga Lake City of Syracuse, NY Syracuse Creekwalk CURRENT PROJECT COMPONENTS There are two existing sections of the Creekwalk along Onondaga Creek, in the City of Syracuse. One section is in Franklin Square and the other is at the Inner Harbor. There is a temporary trail connecting these two sections. This project will extend the existing Creekwalk both to the north and to the south, and make a permanent link between the two existing trails. Existing Creekwalk in Franklin Square To the south, the Creekwalk will be extended from Franklin Square to Armory Square in Downtown. To the north, the Creekwalk will be extended to the mouth of Onondaga Lake. Construction will start in fall 2009, and be completed by the end of 2011. Once expanded, the Onondaga Creekwalk will measure 2.2 miles with an average width of 13 feet. It is planned to connect to the proposed Onondaga County Loop the Lake Trail, as well as to the Erie Canalway Trail. The Syracuse section of the Canalway Trail will actually connect 15 miles of trails in Onondaga County. Linking Section - There currently is a temporary trail extension between the two existing segments of the Onondaga Creekwalk, from Maltbie St to Kirkpatrick St. A permanent section will be constructed on the west bank of Onondaga Creek from Spencer St. to Kirkpatrick St. It will go through the Syracuse Parks Department Main Office property. This link is approximately 0.1 mile between the existing sections.

Minutes for Old Business (Case #C-18-1 – Proposed name change for Brooklawn Pkwy and a portion of Eastern Ave, in the Town of DeWitt, to be known as Robert Feldmeier Pkwy) SOCPA staff stated that the E911 Center was contacted for their review of four alternative options to the proposed street name change, which included an option to rename only the recently-extended portion and/or cul-de-sac of Brooklawn Pkwy as discussed in the public hearing for the proposal. Comments were received from E911 and forwarded to the Town of DeWitt who discussed the options with Feldmeier Equipment. Sam Gordon, Director of Planning and Zoning for the Town of DeWitt, indicated that changing the street name mid-block is not optimal and the original proposal is still preferred. However, the Town would be agreeable to a partial block name change, if necessary.
