Major citywide strategies to improve water quality and promote ecological health have ushered in a new era of environ- mentally conscious planning, policy, and action.

  • Portnyc Developing the City's Freight and Passenger Infrastructure To
    New York Harbor is the third-largest port in the United States and the largest port complex on the Atlantic Coast. New York City Economic Development Corporation’s PortNYC develops the City’s freight and passenger transportation infrastructure to strengthen the region’s economic growth. PortNYC facilities include marine cargo terminals, rail facilities, cruise terminals, ferry landings, active maritime piers, vessel berthing opportunities, and aviation facilities within New York City’s five boroughs. Marine Cargo Terminals New York City’s ports are America’s gateway to the largest and wealthiest consumer market in the United States. PortNYC supports the local economy by enabling firms to bring goods to market by vessel, one of the most efficient modes of freight transportation. Approximately 400,000 containers move through New York City’s seaports annually, and recent infrastructure upgrades to the city’s marine cargo terminals will allow more than a million tons of cargo to arrive by water instead of truck. The City promotes and incentivizes the maritime industry by maintaining and leasing these facilities and designating them Significant Maritime and Industrial Areas. CARGO FACILITIES • Global Container Terminal—New York (containers, break-bulk, and ro-ro), Staten Island • Red Hook Container Terminal (containers, break-bulk, and ro-ro), Brooklyn • South Brooklyn Marine Terminal (break-bulk, ro-ro, and project cargoes), Brooklyn Global Container Terminal on Staten Island is • 25th Street Freight Pier (aggregate), Brooklyn the city’s largest deep-sea marine facility.

Provide a brief statement of the municipality’s vision for downtown revitalization. Downtown Staten Island is experiencing an unprecedented amount of interest from around the region and the world, including substantial public and private investment. As this influx of businesses, residents, visitors, and investors began, our community understood the absolute need for a guiding strategic vision to allow for smart growth. Community-based and civic organizations, elected officials, government agencies, educational institutions, businesses, property owners, and residents have come together in many ways to ensure that all points of view are represented and to ensure an equitable and well-balanced view of the area’s future. With its proximity to both the rest of New York City and New Jersey, Downtown Staten Island is poised to become a regional hub. There is a consensus vision of a thriving, mixed-use, mixed-income, multi-cultural waterfront community serving not only as a destination itself, but also as a vibrant connector to the rest of Staten Island, the rest of the City, and the world.
