    Chapter 5.1: Land Use, Zoning, and Public Policy A. INTRODUCTION

    Chapter 5.1: Land Use, Zoning, and Public Policy A. INTRODUCTION This chapter describes existing land use, zoning, and public policies applicable to the proposed project and evaluates potential significant adverse effects that may result from implementation of the proposed flood protection system. Potential significant adverse effects to land use as a result of implementing the flood protection system are also evaluated. Potential land use issues include known or likely changes in current land uses within the study area, as well as the proposed project’s potential effect on existing and future land use patterns. Potential zoning and public policy issues include the compatibility of the proposed project with existing zoning and consistency with existing applicable public policies. PROJECT AREA ONE Project Area One extends from Montgomery Street on the south to the north end of John V. Lindsay East River Park (East River Park) at about East 13th Street. Project Area One consists primarily of the Franklin Delano Roosevelt East River Drive (FDR Drive) right-of-way, a portion of Pier 42 and Corlears Hook Park as well as East River Park. The majority of Project Area One is within East River Park and includes four existing pedestrian bridges across the FDR Drive to East River Park (Corlears Hook, Delancey Street, East 6th Street, and East 10th Street Bridges) and the East Houston Street overpass. Project Area One is located within Manhattan Community District 3, and borders portions of the Lower East Side and East Village neighborhoods. PROJECT AREA TWO Project Area Two extends north and east from Project Area One, from East 13th Street to East 25th Street.

By restricting the resale of shares and removing the housing from the open market, limited-equity co-ops allow for the long-term maintenance of housing affordability and make the benefits of homeownership accessible to lower-income individuals than those served by stereotypical homeownership.

    Landmarks Preservation Commission September 16, 2008, Designation List 405 LP-2263 PUBLIC NATIONAL BANK OF NEW YORK BUILDING (later Public National Bank & Trust Company of New York Building), 106 Avenue C (aka 231 East 7th Street), Manhattan. Built 1923; Eugene Schoen, architect; New York Architectural Terra Cotta Co., terra cotta. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 377, Lot 72. On October 30, 2007, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Public National Bank of New York Building (later Public National Bank & Trust Company of New York Building) and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 7). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Five people spoke in favor of designation, including Councilmember Rosie Mendez and representatives of the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation, Historic Districts Council, Metropolitan Chapter of the Victorian Society in America, and New York Landmarks Conservancy. The building’s owner opposed designation. In addition, the Commission received a number of communications in support of designation, including letters from City Councilmember Tony Avella, the Friends of Terra Cotta, Neue Galerie Museum for German and Austrian Art, and City Lore: The New York Center for Urban Folk Culture. Summary The Public National Bank of New York Building in the East Village is a highly unusual American structure displaying the direct influence of the early-twentieth- century modernism of eminent Viennese architect/designer Josef Hoffmann. Built in 1923, the bank was designed by Eugene Schoen (1880-1957), an architect born in New York City of Hungarian Jewish descent, who graduated from Columbia University in 1902, and soon after traveled to Europe, meeting Otto Wagner and Hoffmann in Vienna.

    TO: Members, ASLA Executive Committee FROM: Len Hopper, ASLA Past President SUBJECT: ASLA Design Medal Nomination Date: March 16, 2004 I would like to put forth the nomination of M. Paul Friedberg, FASLA, for the ASLA Design Medal. A comprehensive biography, thoughts and body of built works was highlighted several years back in Process Magazine and I include excerpts that provide a firm base for the Committee to begin their evaluation. The issue of PROCESS magazine dedicated to Paul and his work provides an excellent introspective of the man and a retrospective summary of his most important works. I would like to expand and add to this background of his accomplishments with the following highlights: With the design and implementation of Riis Plaza in the Lower East Side of New York the landscape model for low income housing was permanently altered. The model was equally applicable to all urban high rise housing. Integrated into the landscape design is a series of events and opportunities facilitating a new and unique level of social interaction among both the community and the residents. No longer were lawns fenced off and inaccessible to the people. Space was re- defined in relationship to the needs and desires of the community and the resident population. A Demonstration Grant from the federal government and with New York City as the client, Friedberg developed new forms of play environments which made the traditional swing/slide and seesaw obsolete. This was accomplished through the development of playgrounds which were conceived of as total design environments dedicated to the issue of “inter-connected play" and performance.
