NYC Housing Options List (Updated Circa May 2018) New York City Housing Options List All Peridance students are responsible for finding their own housing. The following list is meant to help students get started in their search. Peridance is not liable for the actions of any housing provider included on the list. Please proceed with caution when pursuing online housing providers like Craigslist, as they have been known to offer potentially risky scams. As with all housing in New York, you must make reservations ahead of time. Please contact each individual residence for further information and to book your housing. Prices are subject to change. (Last Updated May 2018) Please note: Many students choose to book a residence for a short period of time upon arrival, perhaps for just a few weeks or a month. This gives them time to find a more suitable longer-term situation that they can then look at firsthand while they are here.

  • 154 WEST 14Th STREET BUILDING, 154-162 West 14Th Street (Aka 51-59 Seventh Avenue), Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission June 28, 2011, Designation List 444 LP-2419 154 WEST 14th STREET BUILDING, 154-162 West 14th Street (aka 51-59 Seventh Avenue), Manhattan. Built 1912-13; Herman Lee Meader, architect; New York Architectural Terra Cotta Co., terra cotta. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 609, Lot 7. On June 22, 2010, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the 154 West 14th Street Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 5). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Three people spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of New York Assemblymember Deborah J. Glick, the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation, and the Historic Districts Council. Summary The 154 West 14th Street Building (1912-13), a 12-story speculative loft structure constructed for lawyer-banker and real estate developer Leslie R. Palmer, was the first completed New York City design by architect Herman Lee Meader, with whom Palmer collaborated on five projects. The building’s location at the prominent intersection of 14th Street and Seventh Avenue anticipated the southward extension of Seventh Avenue and its new subway line, and benefitted from its proximity and direct access to the Holland Tunnel and west side freight terminals. Arranged in a tripartite base-shaft-capital composition with large window areas, it is a striking and unusual example of a large loft building partly clad in terra cotta – on the three-story base, on the spandrels between the white-brick piers of the midsection, and on the upper portion.

  • 14Th Street Corridor Traffic Analysis Overview Introduction in Late
    February 22, 2018 14th Street Corridor Traffic Analysis Overview Introduction In late October 2012, Hurricane Sandy devastated New York City and left 43 New Yorkers dead, 2 million people without power, flooding in 17% of the city affecting some 90,000 buildings, and $19 billion in damages to the City alone. The effects of the extensive damage to the subway system serve as a reminder of Sandy’s huge impact. All six of the MTA-NYCT’s East River subway tunnels were inundated with storm water surges, corroding the various mechanical, electrical and communications components with saltwater. The 92-year-old tubes of the Canarsie Tunnel, connecting Brooklyn and Manhattan via the L Line, were flooded with seven million gallons of salt water. While the tubes were drained and service was restored just 10 days after the storm, it was clear that a full reconstruction of the tunnel was required. Service Planning for the Canarsie Tube Closure Starting in April 2019, the 15-month closure of the L train’s Canarsie Tunnel will directly affect 275,000 daily customers. While MTA New York City Transit (NYCT) and the New York City Department of Transportation (DOT) have been working together to provide alternatives and new travel options, it is difficult to overstate the significant disruption and inconvenience being brought to the lives of hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers. With most L commuters moving to other subways, even those New Yorkers who do not ride the L will see their commutes affected by the influx of L riders on their subway lines.

  • Washington Heights Community Directory
    Washington Heights Community Resource Directory New York State Psychiatric Institute Center of Excellence for Cultural Competence May 2008 Community Profile: Washington Heights and Inwood A survey of New York City residents found that people who report having significant emotional distress are more likely to engage in unhealthy behaviors, such as getting no exercise, binge drinking, smoking, and eating a poor diet. Similarly, New Yorkers with significant emotional distress experience high rates of chronic illness, such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, obesity, asthma, and diabetes. An added difficulty is that neighborhoods in New York with the lowest incomes often have the highest rates of significant emotional distress, often adding to the burden on these already underserved communities (New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, 2003). The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) has conducted a number of community health surveys to assess the health and well-being of New Yorkers. Here, we present some of the factors important to the physical and mental health of the communities of Washington Heights and Inwood, to serve as background for the services listed in this directory. Washington Heights and Inwood: The population of Inwood and Washington Heights (I/WH) at the 2000 census was 270,700. More than half of the residents of these communities (51%) were born outside the United States, compared to 36% for New York City as a whole. Figure 1 shows the countries of origin for foreign-born members of Community District 12 (which is made up of Inwood and Washington Heights), while Table 1 lists foreign-born residents by country of origin.

Our efforts in sanitation, security, horticulture, and placemaking have sustained and accelerated growth for decades. But our neighborhood’s growth is not over. With more than 1 million square feet of planned development underway, it is time to re-invest for tomorrow. The projects and programs detailed in the Union Square-14th Street District Vision Plan will not just focus on the neighborhood’s competitive advantage but continue to make the area a resource for all New Yorkers for generations to come. This plan is a jumping-off point for collaboration with our constituents. At its center, the vision proposes a dramatic 33% expansion of public space.
