    Development News Highlights MANHATTAN - MID-2ND QUARTER 2019 PLUS AN OUTER BOROUGH SNAPSHOT Pictured: 315 Meserole Street Looking Ahead U.S. Treasury Releases Additional Opportunity Zones Guidelines On April 17th the U.S. Department of the Treasury issued a highly anticipated second set of proposed regulations related to the new Opportunity Zone (OZ) tax incentive. Created by the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the tax benefi t is designed to drive economic development and create jobs by encouraging long-term investments in economically distressed communities nationwide according to the Treasury department’s press release. The latest 169-page release reportedly delivered guidance in a broader range of areas than many expected, hoping to provide investors who have been on the fence with the clarity needed to begin developing projects in distressed areas nationwide. Some government offi cials anticipate the program could spur $100 billion in new investment into the more than 8,762 zones nationwide, of which 306 are located in New York City; however there exist some concerns among critics that the program will incentivize gentrifi cation, or provide added benefi t to developers for projects they would have been pursued anyway. According to the press release by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), a key part of the newly released guidance clarifi es the “substantially all” requirements for the holding period and use of the tangible business property: • For use of the property, at least 70% of the property must be used in a qualifi ed OZ. • For the holding period of the property, tangible property must be qualifi ed opportunity zone business property for at least 90% of the Qualifi ed Opportunity Fund’s (QOF) or qualifi ed OZ business’s holding period.

Or, you may have the time to read this entire book, but find all the possibilities overwhelming. It’s also possible that you won’t be overwhelmed by the information in this book, but find that when you actually get to New York City, you get confused just trying to figure out which way is uptown and which is down- town, let alone trying to find a specific shop in NoLita. To combat the above problems, I have created this at-a-glance chapter to help you get started quickly and easily by using these pages as a handy tip sheet. This chapter features some easy- to-locate shops where you can find what you need if you’re short on time. Each store mentioned here is explained in greater depth in later chapters, and there are plenty more shops discussed inside. Addresses in all listings are given with cross streets so that you can find your destination more easily. When taking a taxi, tell the driver the cross streets as soon as you get in the car so there is no confusion.

  • Fisher Brothers Holds “Night on Park Avenue” Event at 299 Park Avenue
    FISHER BROTHERS HOLDS “NIGHT ON PARK AVENUE” EVENT AT 299 PARK AVENUE New York, NY (October 4, 2017) –– Fisher Brothers hosted more than 300 of New York City’s top brokers for its Night on Park Avenue event at 299 Park Avenue on September 13. The event showcased the iconic 42-story Plaza District tower, which is set to undergo a renovation starting in early 2018. During his remarks, Fisher Brothers Partner Winston Fisher noted that the firm’s work on 299 Park Avenue will be the final piece of an ambitious $165 million program to reimagine and modernize its entire 5.5 million square foot Manhattan office portfolio. “Each of our buildings has undergone or is currently undergoing an extensive renovation that goes much deeper than a standard refresh,” said Mr. Fisher. “We’ve worked with top designers and architecture firms to totally transform the aesthetic of our buildings with updated entrances, more welcoming lobbies, and enlivened outdoor spaces.” Mr. Fisher told those in attendance that the 299 Park Avenue project will include a reimagined lobby with a high-end design and more open feel; a transformation of the entrance that will allow natural light to fill the lobby; and an illuminated plaza backed by a new exterior lighting system. “Working with David Rockwell and his team, we are reinventing the building with a sleek, stylish design that truly reflects its prestigious Park Avenue address,” said Mr. Fisher. Fisher Brothers has appointed Newmark Knight Frank as the exclusive leasing agent for 299 Park Avenue. In conjunction with the Fisher Brothers leasing team, Newmark Knight Frank is currently marketing over 341,000 rentable square feet of office space across four contiguous floors at the building.

  • Chapter 5: Shadows
    Chapter 5: Shadows A. INTRODUCTION This chapter presents the detailed shadow study that was conducted to determine whether the proposed One Vanderbilt development would cast any new shadows on sunlight-sensitive resources. Sunlight-sensitive resources can include parks, playgrounds, residential or office plazas, and other publicly accessible open spaces; sunlight-dependent features of historic resources; and important natural features such as water bodies. Since the preparation of the shadow analysis in the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS), the height of the proposed One Vanderbilt development was increased. The shadow analysis in this Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) has been revised to reflect this change including Figures 5-1 to 5-22 and 5-27. PRINCIPAL CONCLUSIONS This analysis compared shadows that would be cast by the proposed One Vanderbilt development, which would be built to a floor area ratio (FAR) of 30, with those that would be cast by the 15 FAR building that would be developed absent the proposed actions (the 15 FAR No-Action building). As described below, the analysis concluded that the proposed 30 FAR One Vanderbilt development would cast new shadows on Bryant Park, the west windows of Grand Central Terminal’s main concourse and several other sunlight-sensitive resources. However, the new shadows would be limited in extent, duration and effects and would not result in any significant adverse shadow impacts, as demonstrated in detail below. B. DEFINITIONS AND METHODOLOGY This analysis has been prepared in accordance with CEQR procedures and follows the guidelines of the 2014 City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) Technical Manual. DEFINITIONS Incremental shadow is the additional, or new, shadow that a structure resulting from a project would cast on a sunlight-sensitive resource.

  • Chapter 2: Land Use, Zoning, and Public Policy
    Chapter 2: Land Use, Zoning, and Public Policy A. INTRODUCTION This chapter examines the potential effects of the proposed 53 West 53rd Street project (the proposed project) on land use and development trends, its compatibility with surrounding land uses, and its consistency with zoning and relevant public policies. The project site is located in Midtown Manhattan on the block bounded by West 53rd and 54th Streets and Fifth and Sixth Avenues. The project site consists of a combined zoning lot comprising the development site (Lots 5, 6, 7, 8, 66, 69, 165, and a portion of Lot 58 on Block 1269) the American Folk Art Museum (Lot 9), the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) (Lots 11, 12, 13, 20, 58), a residential high-rise building (Lot 7501), and St. Thomas Church (Lot 30). The development site is vacant. The proposed project would develop these seven vacant lots with a mixed-use building including museum, restaurant, hotel, and residential components. To construct the proposed building, the applicant is seeking a special permit to allow the transfer of development rights from the University Club at 1 West 54th Street to the development site and an additional special permit to modify certain bulk and other zoning requirements in connection with the use of excess development rights from St. Thomas Church. This chapter provides an assessment of the existing and future conditions with and without the proposed project within the ¼-mile land use study area surrounding the combined zoning lot. As described below, this analysis concludes that the proposed project would be consistent with the mixture of land uses found in the surrounding area.

  • Appendix A: Shadows
    Appendix A: Shadows Appendix A: Shadows A. INTRODUCTION As discussed in Chapter 6, “Shadows,” a detailed analysis comparing shadows in the future with the proposed project with the shadows in the future with the Previously Approved Project and with the Expanded Development Scenario was undertaken on each of the four analysis days, consistent with the methodology outlined in the CEQR Technical Manual. For a substantial number of open space and historic resources, the proposed project would not result in any incremental increase in shadow. In addition, there are a number of resources that would receive incremental shadow for fewer than 30 minutes. These resources are described in detail in this appendix. B. ASSESSMENT OF INCREMENTAL SHADOWS: PROPOSED PROJECT COMPARED WITH PREVIOUSLY APPROVED PROJECT OPEN SPACES THAT WOULD NOT RECEIVE ANY INCREMENTAL SHADOW THE SHEFFIELD RESIDENTIAL PLAZAS These plazas, located on the block bounded by Eighth and Ninth Avenues and West 56th and 57th Streets, are fully in existing shadow during the first 15 minutes of the December 21 analysis day, when the proposed project’s shadow would otherwise affect them. No incremental shadow would fall on these spaces at any time of year, and no shadow impacts would occur as a result of the proposed project. MCCAFFREY PLAYGROUND This playground is located on the north side of West 43rd Street between Eighth and Ninth Avenues. Shadow from the proposed project would be long enough to reach this playground from 6:57 AM to 7:15 AM on the June 21 analysis day; however, the portions of the space that could be affected are already in shadow at this time, and so no incremental shadow would occur.

    Manhattan Offi ce Market 2 ND QUARTER 2015 REPORT A NEWS RECAP AND MARKET SNAPSHOT Pictured: 1001 Avenue of the Americas Looking Ahead Partnership for New York City: New York’s Future as the World Financial Capital The report released in June concluded that while New York City remains the preferred location of global fi nancial companies to establish their headquarters, there is a growing trend to relocate jobs and business operations to lower cost, more business-friendly locations that are beyond the city’s border. A comprehensive survey was conducted in collaboration with Gerson Lehrman Group (GRG), intending to better understand how the fi nancial industry is evolving; and what measures are required to solidify New York’s competitive advantage as a global fi nancial center. Collected data represents an overview of the responses from 50-fi rm respondents that included large banks, insurance companies and asset managers, private equity fi rms, hedge funds, and fi nancial technology (FinTech) startups; and represent about 1/3rd of the total industry employment in the city. Additionally, observations were included from 8-real estate fi rms that were surveyed; along with interviews from other related experts in the fi eld. Financial Industry – an economic snapshot • Contributes 20% of the city’s economic output, representing twice that of the next top-grossing industry. • Accounts for nearly 1/3rd of the city’s private sector payroll, despite accounting for only 8%, or about 310,000 of the city’s private sector jobs in 2013; of which 23,000 jobs are high-technology in the areas of software, data processing and network management.
