CONTACT EMAILS: Anne Troy, Manager Grants Relations: [email protected] Melissa Kaplan-Macey, Vice President, State Programs, [email protected] Tom Wright, CEO & President: [email protected] REGIONAL PLAN ASSOCIATION - BRIEF BACKGROUND: Regional Plan Association (RPA) was established as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in 1929 and for nearly a century has been a key planner and player in advancing long-range region-wide master plans across the tri-state. Projects over the years include the building of the the Battery Tunnel, Verrazano Bridge, the location of the George Washington Bridge, the Second Avenue subway, the New Amtrak hub at Moynihan Station, and Hudson Yards, and establishing a city planning commission for New York City. In November 2017, RPA published its Fourth Regional Plan for the tri-state area, which included recommendations for supporting and expanding community-centered arts and culture in New York City neighborhoods to leverage existing creative and cultural diversity as a driver of local economic development. The tri-state region is a global leader in creativity. Its world-class art institutions are essential to the region’s identity and vitality, and drive major economic benefits. Yet creativity on the neighborhood level is often overlooked and receives less support.

  • To Download Three Wonder Walks
    Three Wonder Walks (After the High Line) Featuring Walking Routes, Collections and Notes by Matthew Jensen Three Wonder Walks (After the High Line) The High Line has proven that you can create a des- tination around the act of walking. The park provides a museum-like setting where plants and flowers are intensely celebrated. Walking on the High Line is part of a memorable adventure for so many visitors to New York City. It is not, however, a place where you can wander: you can go forward and back, enter and exit, sit and stand (off to the side). Almost everything within view is carefully planned and immaculately cultivated. The only exception to that rule is in the Western Rail Yards section, or “W.R.Y.” for short, where two stretch- es of “original” green remain steadfast holdouts. It is here—along rusty tracks running over rotting wooden railroad ties, braced by white marble riprap—where a persistent growth of naturally occurring flora can be found. Wild cherry, various types of apple, tiny junipers, bittersweet, Queen Anne’s lace, goldenrod, mullein, Indian hemp, and dozens of wildflowers, grasses, and mosses have all made a home for them- selves. I believe they have squatters’ rights and should be allowed to stay. Their persistence created a green corridor out of an abandoned railway in the first place. I find the terrain intensely familiar and repre- sentative of the kinds of landscapes that can be found when wandering down footpaths that start where streets and sidewalks end. This guide presents three similarly wild landscapes at the beautiful fringes of New York City: places with big skies, ocean views, abun- dant nature, many footpaths, and colorful histories.

  • Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) Hourly Traffic on Bridges and Tunnels Dataset Overview
    Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) Hourly Traffic on Bridges and Tunnels Dataset Overview General Description MTA Bridges and Tunnels Created in 1933 by Robert Moses, MTA Bridges and Tunnels serves more than 800,000 vehicles each weekday — nearly 290 million vehicles each year — and carries more traffic than any other bridge and tunnel authority in the nation. All are within New York City, and all accept payment by E-ZPass, an electronic toll collection system that is moving traffic through MTA Bridges and Tunnels toll plazas faster and more efficiently. MTA Bridges and Tunnels is a cofounder of the E-ZPass Interagency Group, which has implemented seamless toll collection in 14 states, including New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Virginia, and West Virginia; tolls are charged electronically to a single E-ZPass account. See also: http://web.mta.info/mta/network.htm This dataset provides data showing the number of vehicles (including cars, buses, trucks and motorcycles) that pass through each of the nine bridges and tunnels operated by the MTA each hour. The dataset includes Plaza ID, Date, Hour, Direction, # Vehicles using EZ Pass, and # Vehicles using cash. Data Collection Methodology This data is collected on a weekly basis. The data is extracted directly from the EZ-Pass system database. Statistical and Analytic Issues Only in-bound (Staten Island-bound) traffic over the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge is collected. The column labeled ETC refers to electronic toll collection. This is the number of vehicles that pass through each bridge or tunnel's toll plaza using E-ZPass.

  • 3. Affected Environment
    Draft Champlain Hudson Power Express EIS 3. Affected Environment This section provides a description of the existing environment within the proposed CHPE Project area. To facilitate discussion, this EIS divides the approximately 336-mile (541-km) proposed transmission line route into four segments: Lake Champlain Segment (Section 3.1), Overland Segment (Section 3.2), Hudson River Segment (Section 3.3), and New York City Metropolitan Area Segment (Section 3.4). This division is based on geographical and environmental similarities along the route, as described in Section 2.4.1. The Lake Champlain and Hudson River segments contain primarily aquatic corridors, the Overland Segment contains primarily terrestrial corridors, and the New York City Metropolitan Area Segment is a combination of aquatic and terrestrial corridors. The potential impacts associated with constructing and operating the proposed CHPE Project are discussed in Chapter 5 based on the environmental resource areas described in the following sections. Brief definitions of each resource area; laws, regulations, and guidelines potentially applicable to the resource; and existing conditions are discussed for each segment, as appropriate. A region of influence (ROI) for each resource area in which impacts would likely occur is also defined. The ROIs were determined based on regulatory requirements, where applicable, combined with the expected maximum area of measurable construction or operational impacts for that particular resource. 3.1 Lake Champlain Segment 3.1.1 Land Use 3.1.1.1 Background on the Resource Area This section describes existing land uses in the vicinity of the proposed CHPE Project route, and land use plans and policies applicable to the proposed CHPE Project area.
