  • City Council Announcement Re: Hudson Sq. Rezoning and South
    THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK OFFICE OF COMMUNICATIONS CITY HALL NEW YORK, NY 10007 (212) 788-7116 **FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE** March 13, 2013 Contact: 212-788-7116 Release # 037-2013 CITY COUNCIL LAND USE COMMITTEE MODIFIES HUDSON SQUARE REZONING PLAN; PRESERVES HISTORIC SOUTH VILLAGE Council agreement provides funds for new roof at Pier 40, 130 more affordable housing units & additional open space for community “The Hudson Square area in Manhattan’s West Side has long been a largely under regulated neighborhood putting it at constant risk of change not supported by the community nor this Council,” said Council Speaker Christine C. Quinn. “Currently, there are no height restrictions in the district which could lead to unwanted skyscrapers. Additionally, the outdated prohibition of residential development has led to little foot traffic on nights or weekends hurting the neighborhood’s small businesses. To this end, the Council’s Subcommittee on Zoning and Franchises and Committee on Land use will vote today to help to preserve much of the neighborhood’s beloved character and commercial foundation while also bringing a desired vitality and more open space to attract new residents and businesses. I want to thank Trinity Real Estate, Community Board 2, all elected officials, and the City Planning Commission for their dedication to ensuring the neighborhood will grow in a way that was in the best interest of the current and future community.” The Council has made several key modifications to the proposal submitted by the applicant, Trinity Real Estate, which include: - More Affordable Housing: Modification of the zoning text to allow developers to maximize affordable housing to the fullest extent allowed.

During these years of exponential residential growth in NoHo, SoHo, Chinatown and our Hudson River waterfront, planners have not provided for the necessary amenities that make for a healthy and growing residential community, e.g., public schools, open space and parks, access to health care, adequate public transit opportunities and public transit access, affordable retail space, and general services such as sanitation, police and fire. Each year, CB2 receives many applications for residential conversions and re-zonings. The complaints and requests that come to CB2 reflect the concerns of this new residential population. Our budget priorities for the past few years have continued to focus on servicing these new arrivals to the district, as well as our long-time residents. More specific assessments of services will be set forth throughout this Statement. I. DISTRICT OVERVIEW A. Geography Community Board 2 is a diverse district, bounded on the north by 14th Street, the south by Canal Street, the east by the Bowery/Fourth Avenue, and the west by the Hudson River.

Aalbers Introduction 1 Most protests call for specific changes in specific places. Higher wages, shorter work weeks, equal pay for men and woman, no more separated seating in buses, no more budget cuts, no more bombs, no more discrimination. Usually such demands are specific to a city or country or even to one economic sector within that city or country. In that light, the demands of Occupy Wall Street (OWS) and its offshoots around the globe are not clear.
