Teetering on the Edge It’s ironic that as we’re gearing up to celebrate in 2009 the 400th anniversary of Henry Hudson’s voyage, the valley teeters on the brink. For centuries the region has been cherished for its scenic splendor and treasured for its role in American history and culture. But now the cumulative effects of overdevelopment threaten to push us over the edge from beauty to blight. Forceful response by Scenic Hudson—and you In 2006 Scenic Hudson’s passionate and expert staff challenged local officials to think twice about rubber- stamping poorly planned riverfront development. Working with residents and groups all along the river, we pushed developers to drastically scale back sprawling plans. We demanded they not cut communities off from their waterfronts. We insisted they modify their designs to protect and restore irreplaceable wildlife habitats. We purchased critical waterfront land to keep it out of developers’ hands and create public places along the river. And in Albany we pushed for legislation giving communities the tools to stop overdevelopment. We must seize this momentum. It’s estimated that 75,000 new houses will be built in the region in the next decade—15,000 alone are planned along the Hudson’s shores. Left unchecked, this wave of development will destroy our world-famous landscapes, foul our drinking water, clog our roads and destroy family farms. Mobilized by this threat, our membership has nearly doubled between June 2005 and today. More citizens join us every day. Ned Sullivan (left) and Fred Rich We have a plan With your help and the support of other committed allies, Scenic Hudson has a plan to move the valley in a positive direction. • We’re aiming to double the 22,000 acres of strategically positioned land we’ve protected in our 43-year history: waterfronts, ridgelines and working farms. • We’ll complete our Long Dock Beacon project, combining a stunning urban waterfront park with the country’s first “green” hotel/conference center. It will serve as a model for smart, environmentally sound development. • We’ll stop or modify every single poorly planned residential mega-project along the Hudson. • We’ll seek to change the rules of the game, so residents, and not developers, decide the future of their communities. • We’ll continue pressuring GE to clean up toxic PCBs until the job is done safely and effectively. One of our founders, Franny Reese, taught us a three-point creed: “Care enough to take action. Do your research so you don’t have to backtrack from a position. And don’t give up!” Our board, staff and members are passionate about the Hudson. We’ve done our homework and are confident we’re doing the right thing. And we have no intention of quitting until we’ve preserved a Hudson River Valley that will be celebrated for another 400 years.

Frederic C. Rich, Board Chair Ned Sullivan, President

GIVING THE RIVER Expertise + Passion BACK TO THE PEOPLE Relying on our expertise, we help communities transform their shorelines from industrial eyesores into places where residents want to live, work and have fun. And when poorly planned developments stand in our way, we don’t back down.

Victor-Pierre Melendez Our Community Outreach Coordinator, Victor is on the front lines. When mega- developments stand to block a community’s access to the river, he rallies residents to fight back. At the moment he’s “on the ground” in Westchester and Ulster counties, both of whose shorelines are threatened by thousands of housing units in huge proposed developments. Thanks to Victor’s work with local officials and our partners, residents spoke out so forcefully against projects’ initial plans that developers were forced to scale them back. Recipient of a master’s degree in environmental policy, Victor has been focusing on a group often absent from the planning table—Hispanic residents. His grasp of the language and his zeal for creating waterfronts where all can live, work and have fun make him the perfect ambassador for Scenic Hudson’s mission within this community. A member of the Diversity Committee of the state Outdoor Education Association, he’s devoted to finding ways of including everyone in his “wonderful adventure.” Quote: “I’m blessed with the opportunity to ALERT: bring my two passions together—environmental THREAT“High-density residential development is threatening to choke the river banks like protection and increasing environmental awareness within Hispanic-American communities.” plaque on an artery.” —The New York Times Yonkers: Strong advocacy, new funding bring back the Saw Mill River n Our bold work with Gov. George E. Pataki to “daylight” (uncover) the city’s historic Saw Mill River to create a stunning downtown water feature remains a key component of developers’ plans. We’re promoting a lively, commercially successful Saw Mill riverwalk. Our advocacy in Albany helped produce a state commitment of $34 million to make it a reality. n We marshaled residents to attend public meetings, letting officials know loud and clear that they want places to enjoy the river, not a towering skyline obliterating views of the Palisades—their city’s natural skyline. Ferry Landings Mixed-Use Development n Fierce opposition to skyscrapers moved one developer to concede that if residents don’t want a 30-story tower on their waterfront, he won’t build one.

Work ahead: We’ll fight for residents to have a say in rewriting the city’s Waterfront park and riverwalk waterfront master plan. Getting this blueprint for growth right will benefit Yonkers for generations. In the last master plan, drafted in 1998, we won inclusion of an 8-story cap on building heights.

[ 5 ] Expertise + Passion FROM BLIGHT TO BEAUTY— CREATING PARKS THAT LIFT OUR SPIRITS We purchase land that’s been neglected and overrun for decades, then let our expert planners create stunning riverfront parks that lift our spirits and reduce stress.

Rita D. Shaheen As our Senior Park Planner, Rita’s expertise is transforming neglected riverfront land into parks that lure people to the river. Conventional wisdom said nothing could beautify the small, overused plot she turned into newly opened Foundry Dock Park (photo at left) in Cold Spring, Putnam County. But combining her passion and master’s degree in landscape architecture, Rita took the lead in creating an oasis with native plants, a small-boat launch and decks affording magnificent river views. At West Point Foundry Preserve, also in Cold Spring, Rita’s tackling the “exciting challenge” of developing an industrial-heritage destination while meeting residents’ needs for a neighborhood park. And in Tarrytown, Westchester County, she’s helping turn a five-acre industrial eyesore into a waterfront park. “It will be a model of how a land trust, developer and local municipality and its residents can work together to make its riverfront a center for the community again,” she says. Quote: “I can’t think of a better reward than giving people a place along the Hudson River to enjoy its views, take a walk, learn about local ALERT: history or launch a kayak.” THREAT“We should pay attention to the access people have to the sight of trees and open space, and recognize that this is not merely recreational. It may be contributing to our well-being.” —University of Pennsylvania Professor Aaron Katcher his year we completed projects that already have introduced thousands more people to the power

of their Hudson River. We also made great progress on several more. By adding to the 22,000 acres Tof land we’ve already protected, we preempted sprawling overdevelopment from destroying vital natural habitats and working farmland.

Completed Projects • Preserving spectacular views, creating a kayaker’s oasis Project Location Description Foundry Dock Park Cold Spring (Putnam) We transformed a small, nondescript waterfront plot into a stunning park with a walking path, benches, boat launch and decks affording spectacular views of the Hudson Highlands. Esopus Meadows Water Trail Esopus (Ulster) Paddlers on the Hudson have a new place to rest. The site features two boat ramps, a pavilion and picnic tables.

Projects underway • Turning 3 industrial eyesores into riverfront destinations Scenic Hudson Park Tarrytown (Westchester) An unsightly asphalt plant relocated from the riverfront will be replaced by a 5-acre park. Scenic Hudson’s $1 million at Tarrytown investment ensures the land will remain public forever. West Point Foundry Preserve Cold Spring (Putnam) Landscape architects are designing plans to turn this 87-acre site, once a battery factory, into a world-class industrial- heritage park describing the history and ecology of the 19th-century West Point Foundry and Foundry Cove Marsh. Long Dock Beacon Beacon (Dutchess) Nationally recognized Doral Arrowwood is joining developer Foss Group Beacon as co-investor and operator of the country’s first “green” hotel/conference center, to be surrounded by a 16-acre Scenic Hudson park on a former industrial dumping ground. Groundbreaking should occur in spring 2007. Environmental sculpture Beacon Point Project— whose decks and walkways offer magnificent views of Newburgh Bay—has been completed in the park.

[ 7 ] Expertise + Passion BUILDING AN ENVIRONMENTAL ARMY We’re creating unstoppable momentum as more and more people—young and old alike— learn about and join our fight to save the valley.

Susan Hereth “Helping kids find awe and wonder in nature” is what makes Susan Hereth tick. Our Community Education Coordinator, she spends her days in the classroom—or at one of our parks—showing youngsters how the abstract concepts they learn in textbooks relate to the real world. The field trips Susan leads to Shaupeneak Ridge or Madam Brett Park are some students’ first exposure to the great outdoors—and the start of a lifelong love for the environment. She admits that the children’s “always refreshing curiosity” keeps her on her toes. Susan, who holds a bachelor’s degree in geography, is currently involved in two new programs with schools in Ulster County. One at the Woodstock Day School is teaching youngsters about the vital importance of preserving local agriculture. The other, “The Hudson River: Past, Present, Future,” will allow Kingston second- and fourth-graders to explore the region’s history and ecology. Whatever the class, what excites Susan most is “seeing the students make the ‘connection’ to the local environment.” ALERT: Quote: “I see firsthand that what I do is THREAT“Children must develop a sense of respect and caring for their natural environment during their making a difference in the lives of children first few years of life or be at risk for never developing such attitudes.” —www.kidsource.com and our Hudson Valley.” This page is about you, our partners in the battle to create a Hudson Valley that will be enjoyed for generations. Our biggest Great River Sweep ever Our ninth annual Great River Sweep broke all records for making the Hudson’s shorelines safe and inviting. This most-ever Sweep featured 223 cleanups, 6,960 participants and 109 communities taking part. The most important number? Volunteers picked up 100 tons of trash from Manhattan to the Adirondacks.

For many, it was their first close-up look at the valley’s natural beauty.

Detail of a mural created by Cold Spring students. Strengthening our corps of citizen activists Recreation, information and participation motivate people to stand up for the river that flows through their lives. This year 2,003 people joined guided hikes, leaned on Scenic Hudson’s Web site and brochures to propel their advocacy or attended our community forums. We’re keeping residents abreast of what’s happening along their riverfront—whether a new development or a Scenic Hudson park—and giving them tools to shape the communities they want.

Thanks to our new “click the red button” free membership campaign, we now have nearly double the number of citizen activists partnering with us. Our members are poised to swing into action when something they care about is threatened—from battling a poorly planned development to urging state legislators to pass key environmental initiatives.
