Implementation of the Plan 148 Appendices 164 Message from the Co-Chairs The Southern Tier is ready to be a hotbed of vigorous business growth and development and a destination for the next generation of the nation’s best and brightest talent. We are prepared to work hard during the next five years to execute our Upstate Revitalization Initiative Plan, which is strategic, realistic and designed to produce measurable results. Nearly 1,000 people across the region participated in developing our plan, and we will stand together to transform the Southern Tier and bring about an advanced economy of the future. Throughout the planning process, we have built strong synergies among individuals, target industries, academia, the nonprofit sector and government. With this solid foundation of connections and relationships, the Southern Tier is poised to move forward immediately. The URI investment of $500 million will leverage more than $2.5 billion in private investment, create more than 10,200 jobs and have an overall economic impact of $3.4 billion in the next five years. We will revitalize distressed communities, make our mark as a region of innovation, attract foreign investment and increase exports, leverage our natural resources, strengthen our industries ranging from advanced manufacturing to agriculture to tourism, and change our image. By 2020 we expect the Southern Tier will be recognized for its innovation, highly trained workforce, strong communities and high-paying jobs. At the same time, we recognize the importance of reaching across regional boundaries to tap expertise and collaborate on opportunities that will enhance the economy of the entire state. We also have made certain that programs, services and jobs will be available to everyone who wants to be part of the Southern Tier’s workforce and overall economic success. On behalf of the Southern Tier, we thank Governor Cuomo for his vision and the opportunity to compete for an Upstate Revitalization Initiative award.

Introduction and Executive Summary Introduction Picture a place with a reasonable cost of living and incredible natural beauty. Think of communities where you may run into your neighbor at the coffee shop — or while cheering at a professional sporting event. Add world-renowned institutions of higher education and residents known for their capacity to innovate. Now put all these advantages at the intersection of major highways and rivers, with easy access to half of the North American population. That’s the Southern Tier. We’re not blind to the challenges that lie ahead. Our region has struggled with declining population, an aging workforce, the loss of several major employers and two epic floods in just the past decade. But today the Southern Tier is at a tipping point. With an Upstate Revitalization Initiative investment of $500 million from New York State, we will capitalize on our many assets and overcome these obstacles to create an advanced economy. With this plan, we will build the Greater Binghamton Innovation Ecosystem to lift up the region’s most distressed urban area, transform the food and agriculture industry to capitalize on the Southern Tier’s natural resources, invest in the advanced manufacturing industry to infuse innovation at every level of our region’s largest employer and, finally, Students drive the economy by living, learning and playing in the Southern Tier, and have the potential promote the Southern Tier’s innovative culture to attract tourists, to contribute to the economy by joining the workforce foreign investment and entrepreneurs while encouraging residents to or starting businesses. become regional ambassadors. We will aggressively implement our plan to create the ideal conditions for economic growth by leveraging more than $2.5 billion in private investment, creating more than 10,200 jobs and having an overall economic impact of more than $3.4 billion in the next five years. Building on a strong foundation of target industries, higher education institutions, the nonprofit sector and government agencies, the Southern Tier will take a collaborative approach to attract talent and investment for the development of industry clusters, especially advanced manufacturing, healthcare, food and agriculture and tourism. Our focus will be on increasing the size, quality and prosperity of the region’s workforce through new business creation based on high-technology discoveries and other entrepreneurial activities, while ensuring healthy communities and protecting the region’s natural beauty and resources. This plan represents months of research and public engagement, with deep dives into the demographics and economics of the Southern Tier as well as input from industry and academic leaders, experts in their fields and nearly 1,000 residents. When the initiatives laid out in this plan have been realized, the Southern Tier will no longer be just a region in upstate New York.

  • Small‐City Dualism in the Metro Hinterland: the Racialized
    Small-City Dualism in the Metro Hinterland: The Racialized “Brooklynization” of New York’s Hudson Valley Leonard Nevarez* Vassar College Joshua Simons SUNY New Paltz How does the metropolis influence population change and amenity development in small cities of the adjacent hinterland? We examine one scenario in five cities of New York state’s Hudson Valley, a region north of metropolitan New York City that reveals dual trajectories of urban change. In some cities, immigrant revitaliza- tion brings population growth, revitalizes main street economies, and extends cities’ majority-minority legacies. In other cities, amenity development attracts metropoli- tan newcomers, triggers residential and retail gentrification, sustains majority-white demographics, and fails to offset out-migration associated with rustbelt decline. These dual trajectories are connected through a metropolitan process of “Brook- lynization”: sociospatial changes in hinterland regions set in motion by racialized amenity pursuits. Culturally, metropolitan outsiders encounter small cities through ‘rural’ frameworks that emphasize outdoor/agricultural amenities, small-town ‘au- thenticity,’ and the implicit whiteness of the hinterland landscape. Economically, immigrant revitalization and amenity development are connected via linked migra- tion that channels an immigrant proletariat to some cities and the amenity migrants they labor for to other cities and towns. How does the metropolis affect population change and amenity development in small cities of the adjacent hinterland? We examine one scenario in five cities of New York state’s Hudson Valley. Located “upstate” or north of New York City (NYC) and bisected by the metropolitan border, this region exhibits contrasting yet interrelated trajecto- ries of urban change: foreign immigrant settlement and amenity development that are materially linked and spatially channeled across different places.
