  • Gramercy Park Overview: Trustees of Gramercy Park, Gramercy Park Block Association
    Gramercy Park Overview: Trustees of Gramercy Park, Gramercy Park Block Association Trustees of Gramercy Park Gramercy Park is a private ornamental park and surrounding residential district created in 1831 under a deed established by Samuel B. Ruggles, who vested the title to the Park in the Trustees. Mr. Ruggles granted the owners of surrounding residential lots and all subsequent owners “the right and privilege to frequent, use, and enjoy the Park as an easement to their respective lots.” The Park is managed by the “Park Trust” which consists of five lifetime Trustees. The conditions of Ruggles’ original 1831 deed still govern the Park today. Its provisions include an annual assessment imposed on each of the Lots to cover annual operating expenses and capital improvement projects. Park keys are annually provided to the owners of each of the surrounding Lots. The buildings on the Park have between 1-4 lots based on their Park frontage. The budget includes maintenance, payroll, security, administrative services, community relations, public relations, Park operations, events, professional fees, horticultural plants and bulbs, tree/shrub planting and care, supplies, repairs and/or restoration of the following: sidewalks, monuments, sprinkler system, equipment, benches, etc. The Gramercy Park Block Association Mr. Ruggles could not have imagined that his small residential community of Lot owners would eventually be home to over 2,000 residents. Nor could he have envisioned that Gramercy Park would be at the center of some of the densest neighborhoods and most desirable real estate in the world. The Gramercy Park Block Association organizes the community to fight battles to keep the Park private, and the surrounding lots residential.

Preventing illness requires people making healthy life choices, From neighborhood resources that promote healthy living, and high-quality, accessible medical care. the New York City is the most diverse city in the U.S. This is reflected in the unique character of each neighborhood.

  • Socioeconomic Conditions
    One Police Plaza Security Plan EIS CHAPTER 4: SOCIOECONOMIC CONDITIONS A. INTRODUCTION This chapter examines the potential effects of the action on socioeconomic conditions in the study area, including population and housing characteristics, economic activity, and the real estate market. As described in Chapter 1, ‘Project Description’, the action is the maintenance of the security plan implemented at One Police Plaza and surrounding roadways following the events of September 11, 2001. The security plan resulted in the installation of 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 barriers were installed by the NYPD, with the exception of the barriers located at Park Row at Foley Square and at Pearl Street on the west side of Park Row, which were installed by the USMS. In accordance with the guidelines presented in the City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) Technical Manual, this chapter evaluates five specific factors that could create significant socioeconomic impacts in an area, including: (1) direct displacement of residential population; (2) direct displacement of existing businesses; (3) indirect displacement of residential population; (4) indirect displacement of businesses; and (5) adverse effects on specific industries not necessarily tied to a project site or area. This analysis begins with a preliminary assessment for each specific issue of concern. According to the CEQR Technical Manual, the goal of a preliminary assessment is to discern the effects of a proposed project or action for the purposes of either eliminating the potential for significant impacts or determining that a more detailed analysis is necessary to answer the question regarding potential impacts.

  • FIRST QUARTER 2016 Manhattan Market Overview
    FIRST QUARTER 2016 Manhattan Market Overview Partnership. Performance. avisonyoung.com New Jersey Ofce Market MonitorFIRST QUARTER 2016 Partnership. Performance. With 2016 being one-quarter over, we present you with our First Quarter 2016 Manhattan Market Overview. Included inside are Avison Young’s insights on ofce leasing, investment sales, debt & equity, valuation & advisory and retail activity. Please note that with respect to our ofce leasing market data, we have now consolidated our submarkets. As such, the number of submarkets included within each major Manhattan market has been refned and now comprises six areas for Midtown (down from nine), four for Midtown South (down from six) and Downtown remains at three. We have provided descriptions of the markets and submarkets in the “About the Market” section at the end of this report. Regarding overall activity for the frst quarter, despite seeing some signs of year-over-year softness due in part to the global volatility experienced in the beginning of the quarter, the Manhattan market has held up favorably. With respect to ofce leasing, it is the fnancial services and TAMI tenants that are driving much of the growth. However, we are mindful that tenants of all types remain focused on value, while having access to suitable amenities attractive to their business and workforce. With respect to investment sales activity, coming of the heels of a record transaction year, there are some signs that we are starting to see a change in sentiment as investors and market participants take a cautious stance and are hesitant to match the pricing that was commonplace six months ago.

Catherine McNeur Parks, People, and Property Values The Changing Role of Green Spaces in Antebellum Manhattan Abstract: The role that parks played in Manhattan changed dramatically during the antebellum period. Originally dismissed as unnecessary on an island embraced by rivers, parks became a tool for real estate development and gentrification in the 1830s. By the 1850s, politicians, journalists, and landscape architects believed Central Park could be a social salve for a city with rising crime rates, increasingly visible poverty, and deepening class divisions. While many factors (public health, the psychological need for parks, and property values) would remain the same, the changing social conversation showed how ideas of public space were transforming, in rhetoric if not reality. When Andrew Jackson Downing penned his famous essays between 1848 and 1851 calling for New York City to build a great public park to rival those in Europe, there was growing support among New Yorkers for a truly public green space.
