Early last century, industrial piers stretched up the Hudson River from the Battery to the Upper West Side. Most respectable New Yorkers shied away from the working waterfront and therefore lived toward the middle of the island. But in today’s postindustrial Manhattan, the West Side is a highly desirable—and expensive— place, home to residential developments catering to the well-to-do who want to live close to the waterfront and its now recreational piers.

  • 7. Urban Design and Visual Resources
    East Midtown Rezoning and Related Actions FEIS 7. Urban Design and Visual Resources 7.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter assesses the Proposed Action’s potential effects on urban design and visual resources. As described in Chapter 1, “Project Description,” the Proposed Action involves zoning map and zoning text amendments that would affect an approximately 70-block area in the East Midtown area of Manhattan for the purpose of protecting and strengthening the area as a premier office district, as well as improving the area’s pedestrian and built environment. The Proposed Action is intended to encourage limited and targeted as-of-right commercial development in appropriate locations by establishing an East Midtown Subdistrict within the Special Midtown District. The East Midtown Subdistrict would supersede and subsume the existing Grand Central Subdistrict, focusing new commercial development with the greatest as-of-right densities on large sites with full block frontage on avenues around Grand Central Terminal, with slightly lower densities allowed along the Park Avenue corridor and elsewhere. The zoning text amendment would also streamline the system for landmark transfers within the Grand Central Subarea of the East Midtown Subdistrict and generate funding for area-wide pedestrian network improvements. The zoning map amendments would replace the existing C5-2 designation in the midblock area between East 42nd and East 43rd Streets, from Second Avenue to Third Avenue, with C5-3 and C5-2.5 designations, which would be mapped within the Special Midtown District and East Midtown Subdistrict. Subject to further analysis and public consultation, the Proposed Action may also amend the City Map to reflect a “Public Place” designation over portions of Vanderbilt Avenue to allow for the permanent development of a partially pedestrianized street.

    720 Issue #: 09 by FunctionLab Jerold S.Kayden Space Public Owned Privately 720 Privately Owned Public Space On Privately Owned Public Space “The spaces together represent roughly 10% of Central Park. What if we had aspirations that they ought to be as Jerold Kayden good as 10% of Central Park?...What my efforts have gone toward post-book is to make these spaces better, to have owners improve them, to have the public be aware of them, and to do this in a cooperative rather than a con- frontational mode of operation.” “What’s fascinating to me about my book, even this many years later, is that really different types of people like it for completely different reasons… It’s a classic designer’s book, because it’s typological.” “[T]here needs to be an intention from the start – from the design phase through stewardship – along with express open discussion about what’s going to happen on this space and what can make it public. You can design more for “I was not surprised by Occupy Wall Street’s occupation or use or functional use of Zuccotti Park… because that public use or design less for public use. You can oversee and manage more for public use or less for public use.” space and most of the privately owned public spaces in New York tend toward a neutrality of function…Those spaces were and are sitting there waiting to be defined by the user rather than by the owner, but the owners didn’t know that at the time.” “The issue becomes, is political use of space less privileged than eating a sandwich, talking with friends, reading a book, having headphones on, playing chess, taking a photograph, or all the other kinds of activities that have been traditionally accepted as the uses of these sorts of small urban spaces in cities?” “I think irony is the right word.
