It’s an in-between number so we weren’t going to go all out with celebrations. Then we realized that there was no guarantee 45 years ago that we’d still be here—let alone have developed our range of programs and skills. So we decided that a little horn tooting was in order. Our founders had a vision: an organization that would focus on preservation and have technical skills that could actually help people fix their buildings.

Appendix A Buildings Guide 73 2 Introduction In 2007 the National Trust for Historic Preservation’s annual listing of America’s 11 most endangered sites identified the Brooklyn Industrial Waterfront as a disappearing historic industrial site of national importance. The Gowanus Canal Canal, located in the natural basin between Park Slope and Carroll Gardens, is part of the historic Brooklyn Industrial Waterfront currently under pressure from three primary concerns. These are: ground and water contamination conflicting land use needs community desire for public recreational space. The combination of these complex issues has put the canal corridor’s historic industrial resources at risk. In 2004, the United States Army Corps of Engineers initiated an ecosystem restoration study. Complying with section 106 of the federal review process which is designed to ensure that historic properties are considered during federal project planning and execution, identified as National Register eligible a historic district comprised of the canal and several adjacent buildings as well as structures of historic and archeological significance.

Dear Judge Stegemoeller, The Natural Resources Defense Council and Riverside South Planning Corporation are writing to request the additional analysis that Con Edison complete as part of the work in Case 09-S-0029. This request entails an assessment of alternative cases for the 59th Street Generation Station that parallels the Hudson Avenue Steam Station assessment. 59°' Street Generating Station At the March 31, 2009 Technical Conference in this proceeding, the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) and the Riverside South Planning Corporation (RSPC) made a presentation on the status of the Riverside South development, the additional development that has taken place around the 59`s Street Generating Station, and the additional approximately 4.8 million square feet of new development immediately contiguous to the Station that is pending before the City Planning Department. We have attached a modestly updated and corrected copy of the material provided to the parties before the Conference and will be happy to provide a copy of the slides used in the presentation upon the request of participants. Pursuant to the Mayor's P1aNYC policies, the City Planning Department has required the developer of Riverside South, Extell, to assess the viability of creating an energy district to provide the electric, heating and cooling requirements of the new development with a cogeneration system.
