The diary was a daily log of standard by which all others would be measured. problems the organization encountered during the buildings construction That mission has guided Battery Park City throughout and the steps they took to solve those problems. Upon the building’s its rich history and for the better part of the last decade completion, the diary was turned over to the Authority for publication and has inspired the Authority’s greatest achievement, distribution throughout the nation. Most companies would have kept that the implementation of our world renowned green guidelines. Indeed, with information and used it to their obvious advantage but Albanese 4.5 million square feet in sustainable development, the Authority leads by understood the importance of sharing this information. They deserve a lot example showing the world that development does not have to come at of credit for their exceptional generosity, and I am deeply grateful. the expense of the environment. The diary proved to be a critical tool for other developers as they navigated When Battery Park City is complete, it will be home to 8 green residential the green market. Technology for building green was not abundant in high-rise buildings, including the Solaire, which was the nation’s first. The those early years, and the cost of building green was generally more Goldman Sachs World headquarters, which is scheduled for completion in expensive than conventional construction. However, Battery Park City has 2010, will be the largest LEED certified building in the country and the been monitoring the cost differential over the years and we can now say New York Mercantile Exchange, is the first commercial building in New that it has been substantially reduced.

Gill Chairman, Hugh L. Carey Battery Park City Authority Moving forward under the leadership of Governor David A. Paterson, the Authority will continue to expand its green mission. As I write this, plans are being completed for a K-8 school in the southern neighborhood of Battery Park City. This school will be the first green public school to be built in New York City and will give children the opportunity to learn about green building while benefiting from its technology. This new public school is not the only milestone building planned for our southern neighborhood. Recently we entered into an agreement with New York City to expand our southern border to assume management over historic Pier A.

  • Manhattan Retail Market MID-2ND QUARTER 2016 REPORT Retail Activity in the News
    Manhattan Retail Market MID-2ND QUARTER 2016 REPORT Retail Activity In The News Virtual Restaurant Business Revolutionizing Traditional Food Delivery The growing convenience of home food delivery through services such as Seamless and GrubHub has prompted the launch of what can be best described as “virtual restaurants.” One company Green Summit Group currently operates 2-kitchens and boasts 8 “restaurant” brands, yet is void of any storefronts. The business model is banking on the projection that most New York City dwellers won’t care or realize that the food is not being prepared in a traditional restaurant. Green Summit has eliminated the burden of managing retail spaces, while also further benef ting from its ability to shift menu items more quickly to cater to the fast-evolving preferences of consumers by creating another online-branded “restaurant” that appeals to the f avor of the moment. If a particular brand does not meet f nancial expectations it is easily scrapped, incurring a relatively low cost of failure. Currently in expansion mode, in addition to existing kitchens in Midtown and Williamsburg, Brooklyn, the Green Summit plans to open 4 additional kitchens in the Financial District, Downtown Brooklyn, the Upper East Side, and the East Village in 2016 in order to be within delivery range of 90% of New York’s online food-ordering population according to the company’s projections. Generating about $10 million in revenue in 2015, expansion plans are reportedly expected to triple revenue in 2016. Success of the company launched about 2 and a-half years ago may be short-lived in the opinion of some skeptics of the virtual model, pointing out that consumers want to engage with the restaurant brand.

  • One Police Plaza Security Plan EIS CHAPTER 7: TRAFFIC and PARKING
    One Police Plaza Security Plan EIS CHAPTER 7: TRAFFIC AND PARKING A. INTRODUCTION This section of the EIS discusses the transportation characteristics and any potential impacts associated with the security plan implemented shortly after September 11, 2001 by the New York City Police Department (NYPD) in order to protect City, State, and Federal facilities in the “civic center” portion of lower Manhattan which were at the time, and continue to be considered potential terrorist targets. As discussed in Chapter 1, “Project Description,” the security measures include attended security checkpoint booths, planters, bollards and hydraulically- operated delta barriers to restrict the access of unauthorized vehicles from the roadways situated adjacent to the civic facilities located near One Police Plaza. The traffic and parking analysis focuses on the vehicle diversions related to the street closures that are part of the security plan. In addition, on-street and off-street parking conditions are included in the analysis. The traffic study area and analysis locations focus on the perimeter of the security zone and on other key intersections which are considered principal diversion paths. The study area for the transportation analyses is shown in Figure 7-1. The study area was selected to encompass those roadways most likely to be used by the majority of vehicles traveling through the area near One Police Plaza, as well as those roadways most affected by the traffic diversions due to the security plan. As shown in Figure 7-1, the study area is bounded by Kenmare and Broome Streets to the north, Greene Street and Church Street to the west, John Street to the south, and Pearl Street, Madison Street, Pike Street, and Allen Street to the east.
