  • Post FEIS Technical Memorandum
    TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM 003 GREATER EAST MIDTOWN REZONING CEQR No. 17DCP001M ULURP Nos.: N 170186(A) ZRM and C 170187 ZMM August 4, 2017 A. INTRODUCTION The New York City Department of City Planning (DCP) proposes zoning text and zoning map amendments (collectively, the “Proposed Action”) within the East Midtown neighborhood of Manhattan Community Districts 5 and 6. The rezoning area is generally bounded by East 57th Street to the north, East 39th Street to the south, a line generally between 150 and 200 feet easterly of Third Avenue and a line 250 feet westerly of Madison Avenue. Known as the Greater East Midtown Rezoning project, the Proposed Action includes a zoning text amendment to establish the East Midtown Subdistrict within an approximately 78-block area. The Proposed Action is intended to reinforce the area’s standing as a premiere Central Business District, support the preservation of landmarked buildings, and provide for public realm improvements. The Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for the Proposed Action was accepted as complete on December 30, 2016 by DCP, acting on behalf of the City Planning Commission (CPC) as lead agency. An amended zoning text amendment filed by DCP on March 27, 2017 (pursuant to ULURP No. N 170186(A) ZRM) after the issuance of the DEIS, was evaluated in a Technical Memorandum to the DEIS (TM 001). A public hearing for the DEIS was held on April 26, 2017, and written comments were accepted until May 8, 2017. The Notice of Completion for the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS), which included a full analysis of the amended application, was issued on May 26, 2017 (CEQR No.

  • Canadian Centre for Architecture, Montreal 21— 24 September, 2014
    Canadian Centre Museum of for Architecture, Modern Art and Montreal Avery Library, 21— 24 September, New York 2014 25 — 28 September, 2014 Twenty-five years ago the Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA) opened its doors for the first time and hosted, as one of its inaugural activities, icam 5. For the CCA, as for other members of icam, it is crucial to recognize that our immediate contexts and institutional mandates are quite different today from what they were then. Needless to say, the field is changing and the challenges we face in relation to the built environment are multiple, pressing and in need of re-evaluation. Technology, for example, has both infiltrated our way of life and affected the way in which institutions operate. At the same time, the primacy of historical research has been displaced by a desire to remain current, relevant and broadly recognized as shaping contemporary discourse. It is our responsibility to develop a voice that reaches out and establishes a cultural presence while introducing new questions and offering new possibilities to a larger public no longer determined by their physical vicinity. As resources become scarce, these pressures will likely continue to grow. In this sense it is an opportune moment to pursue the benefits of greater collaboration and take note of emerging models in Africa and Asia. These considerations, indicative of the need to rethink our institutional roles in the years to come, are essential if we wish to continue serving as platforms for future conversation. Mirko Zardini Canadian Centre for Architecture Much has changed since icam last visited New York in 1996.
