US Open Bus Trip 2018 Flyer One Day US Open Bus Trip Thursday, August 30, 2018 Includes: • Round Trip Bus Transportation for the day session of the US Open with three pick-up points; White Marsh, Falston and Havre de Grace, then to New York. Departure from White Marsh at 6 AM. We will enter the grounds at 10:00 AM and return from the National Tennis Center at 7PM. Stops at Fallston, park and ride and at Havre de Grace, park and ride. Matches begin at 11:00 AM -- we have never been late. • Beverages on the bus – includes water, wine, beer and snacks. • Your ticket for the US Open day session, includes an indoor seat in the Arthur Ashe Stadium. The paladium is the area of the Ashe stadium that is the highest seating area. If you sit up there it’s hard to see the action. But, last year there was a rather heavy afternoon shower which we were able to avoid by hurrying to the stadium where we found Venus Williams playing singles. She was followed by Roger Federer. It turned out to be a terrific benefit. The Grounds Pass gives you first-come, first-serve access to the Louis Armstrong Stadium, the Grandstand and all other courts. Last year the new stadium was completed and court 14 is great! I spend a lot of time at the practice courts. Saw Federer and Nadal. Sign up now; there are a limited number of seats available, since, again, we are taking only one bus as in previous years. Price is the same as last year. $185/person now through 7/1 $190 after 7/1 ( Pay $185 if you sign up soon) Questions? Contact Tom Strzemienski, Tennis Director at Valleybrook Country Club, on 410-638-1265 or [email protected] for more information or just SIGN UP NOW! Please fill out the separate form below for each person attending. Once payment is received, bus seating is reserved. You will receive a seating chart from which you can reserve your spot. Please be sure to fill in the cell phone #. I will bring the forms on the bus so we can call any passengers who have for some reason failed to board on time.

  • Thornton Tomasetti
    sports “ In terms of creativity … one should take an attitude not that architects and engineers sit on different mounds taking care of their respective problems, but rather that it is one complementary group working together in creating a building.” – Dr. Lev Zetlin sports On the cover: In 1958, Lev Zetlin – founder of the firm that became Thornton Tomasetti – developed a visionary design for “Tomorrow’s Arena” that was discussed in Engineering News Record, Time and This Week magazines and in the New York Herald Tribune. With a capacity of 200,000, the innovative concept features a suspension-tensioned translucent roof and multi-deck parking ramps integrated into the underside of a concrete stadium bowl, close to the stands. It minimizes the use of land and material while enhancing the spectator experience. In 2013, our computational designers used Rhino Grasshopper and Karamba to create an interactive parametric model of the design. Today, Thornton Tomasetti continues to design sports facilities in the creative spirit Contents of Lev Zetlin. We apply groundbreaking technological tools in innovative ways to help clients and project partners make the future of sports design a reality.

This Final Scope has been prepared to describe the Proposed Project (as defined below), present the proposed framework and methodologies for the DEIS analysis, and discuss the procedures to be followed in the preparation of the DEIS. The DEIS will be prepared pursuant to the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA) and its implementing regulations at 6 NYCRR Part 617. Empire State Development (ESD) is serving as the lead agency under SEQRA. A Draft Scope for the project was issued on February 27, 2018. Oral and written comments were received during the scoping meetings held by ESD on March 22, 2018 at Elmont Memorial Library at 700 Hempstead Turnpike, Elmont, NY 11003. Written comments were accepted from the issuance of the Draft Scope through the public comment period, which ended April 12, 2018. The majority of the comments relevant to the Draft Scope focused on: (1) potential health and safety concerns related to the proposed siting of a new electrical substation to serve the Proposed Project; (2) traffic generated by the proposed uses and associated pedestrian safety; (3) the adequacy of parking for the proposed uses; (4) infrastructure and community services capacity concerns; (5) buffers between the Project Sites, North Lot, and adjacent communities (6) visual and safety concerns related to the proposed height of the hotel; and (7) concerns about whether the hotel could include a casino.

  • Positive Declaration
    The proposed project would improve the NTC site plan, circulation, visitor amenities, and landscaping, and would include construction of two new stadiums to replace the existing Louis Armstrong Stadium (Stadium 2) in the same location and Grandstand Stadium (Stadium 3) in a new location at the southwest corner of the NTC site, as well as possible improvements to Arthur Ashe Stadium (Stadium 1). The project would add up to 1.02 acres to the NTC site, including up to 0.76 acres of park land that would be alienated, and 0.26 acres of previously-alienated park land that is currently not covered by the NTC lease. The principal elements of the NTC Strategic Vision plan are as follows. (A) Reconfigured northwest tournament courts and elevated viewing platform. Currently, the northwest courts include five practice courts and two tournament courts, with bleacher seats. The proposed project would replace these courts and bleachers with five new practice courts, three new tournament courts and an elevated viewing platform. (B) Two new parking garages and relocated transportation center. Currently, there is an approximately 200-space surface parking lot and transportation center in the northwest corner of the site and an approximately 100-space surface parking lot in the northeast corner of the site. Under the proposed project, the northwest lot and transportation center would be replaced with an approximately 423-space, 2-level parking garage and transportation building, and the northeast lot would be replaced with an approximately 370-space, 3-level parking garage. (C) Relocated Grandstand Stadium. The current 6,000-seat Grandstand Stadium is located adjacent to Louis Armstrong Stadium, on its east façade.

  • Executive Summary
    Executive Summary A. PROJECT IDENTIFICATION The City of New York Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR), in coordination with USTA National Tennis Center, Incorporated (USTA)1, is seeking a number of discretionary actions in connection with proposed improvements and an expansion to the facilities at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center (NTC), located in Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens (see Figure S-1). These improvements collectively are known as the NTC Strategic Vision (the proposed project). The NTC is located on a portion of Queens Block 2018, Lot 1, on park land leased by DPR to USTA. The leased site is bounded to the north by the railway tracks of the LIRR’s Port Washington line; United Nations Avenue North to the south; the Passerelle Building (connects LIRR’s Mets-Willets Point station to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority [MTA]’s 7 train station, and Citi Field, the New York Mets baseball stadium) and Path of the Americas to the east2; and Grand Central Parkway to the west.3 The 42-acre NTC is one of the world’s largest public recreational tennis facilities. For 11 months of the year, its facilities are open to the public for indoor and outdoor tennis; USTA maintains the facilities year-round. The NTC is also host to the US Open, one of the sport’s four Grand Slam championship tennis tournaments. The event is staged during a two-week period around the beginning of September, is attended by approximately 700,000 spectators, and is broadcast worldwide. The proposed project would improve the NTC site plan, circulation, visitor amenities, and landscaping, and would include construction of two new stadiums to replace the existing Louis Armstrong Stadium (Stadium 2) in the same location, and Grandstand Stadium (Stadium 3) in a new location at the southwest corner of the NTC site, as well as possible improvements to Arthur Ashe Stadium (Stadium 1).
