Car Free Earth Day INTERVENTIONS Request for Proposals INTRODUCTION 2018 Car Free Earth Day INTERVENTIONS Request for Proposals INTRODUCTION CAR FREE EARTH DAY BACKGROUND The New York City Department of Transportation’s (NYCDOT) mission is to provide for the safe, efficient, environmentally responsible movement of people and goods in the City of New York and to maintain and enhance the transportation infrastructure crucial to the economic vitality and quality of life of our primary customers, City residents. Car Free Earth Day (CFED) is an annual car-free event held on the Saturday in advance or immediately following Earth Day, April 22nd (the “Event”). The Event opens thirty blocks of Broadway from Times Square to Union Square for people to explore on foot during event hours, 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM (Appendix A: Car Free Earth Day Route Map). Programming is presented at five rest stops along Broadway: Times Square (42nd Street), Herald Square (34th Street), Garment (39th Street), Flatiron (23rd Street), and Union Square (17th Street). Environmental programming is offered by City agencies and nonprofit organizations along the route to promote activism and education surrounding climate change, sustainability and other relevant topics.

  • Gramercy Park Overview: Trustees of Gramercy Park, Gramercy Park Block Association
    Gramercy Park Overview: Trustees of Gramercy Park, Gramercy Park Block Association Trustees of Gramercy Park Gramercy Park is a private ornamental park and surrounding residential district created in 1831 under a deed established by Samuel B. Ruggles, who vested the title to the Park in the Trustees. Mr. Ruggles granted the owners of surrounding residential lots and all subsequent owners “the right and privilege to frequent, use, and enjoy the Park as an easement to their respective lots.” The Park is managed by the “Park Trust” which consists of five lifetime Trustees. The conditions of Ruggles’ original 1831 deed still govern the Park today. Its provisions include an annual assessment imposed on each of the Lots to cover annual operating expenses and capital improvement projects. Park keys are annually provided to the owners of each of the surrounding Lots. The buildings on the Park have between 1-4 lots based on their Park frontage. The budget includes maintenance, payroll, security, administrative services, community relations, public relations, Park operations, events, professional fees, horticultural plants and bulbs, tree/shrub planting and care, supplies, repairs and/or restoration of the following: sidewalks, monuments, sprinkler system, equipment, benches, etc. The Gramercy Park Block Association Mr. Ruggles could not have imagined that his small residential community of Lot owners would eventually be home to over 2,000 residents. Nor could he have envisioned that Gramercy Park would be at the center of some of the densest neighborhoods and most desirable real estate in the world. The Gramercy Park Block Association organizes the community to fight battles to keep the Park private, and the surrounding lots residential.

  • Landmarks Preservation Commission November 22, 2016, Designation List 490 LP-2579
    Landmarks Preservation Commission November 22, 2016, Designation List 490 LP-2579 YALE CLUB OF NEW YORK CITY 50 Vanderbilt Avenue (aka 49-55 East 44th Street), Manhattan Built 1913-15; architect, James Gamble Rogers Landmark site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1279, Lot 28 On September 13, 2016, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of the Yale Club of New York City and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site. The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with provisions of law. Six people spoke in support of designation, including representatives of the Yale Club of New York City, Manhattan Borough President Gale A. Brewer, Historic Districts Council, New York Landmarks Conservancy, and the Municipal Art Society of New York. The Real Estate Board of New York submitted written testimony in opposition to designation. State Senator Brad Hoylman submitted written testimony in support of designation. Summary The Yale Club of New York City is a Renaissance Revival-style skyscraper at the northwest corner of Vanderbilt Avenue and East 44th Street. For more than a century it has played an important role in East Midtown, serving the Yale community and providing a handsome and complementary backdrop to Grand Central Terminal. Constructed on property that was once owned by the New York Central Railroad, it stands directly above two levels of train tracks and platforms. This was the ideal location to build the Yale Club, opposite the new terminal, which serves New Haven, where Yale University is located, and at the east end of “clubhouse row.” The architect was James Gamble Rogers, who graduated from Yale College in 1889 and attended the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris during the 1890s.

  • Socioeconomic Conditions
    One Police Plaza Security Plan EIS CHAPTER 4: SOCIOECONOMIC CONDITIONS A. INTRODUCTION This chapter examines the potential effects of the action on socioeconomic conditions in the study area, including population and housing characteristics, economic activity, and the real estate market. As described in Chapter 1, ‘Project Description’, the action is the maintenance of the security plan implemented at One Police Plaza and surrounding roadways following the events of September 11, 2001. The security plan resulted in the installation of attended security checkpoint booths, planters, bollards and hydraulically operated delta barriers to restrict the access of unauthorized vehicles from the roadways situated adjacent to the civic facilities located near One Police Plaza. The barriers were installed by the NYPD, with the exception of the barriers located at Park Row at Foley Square and at Pearl Street on the west side of Park Row, which were installed by the USMS. In accordance with the guidelines presented in the City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) Technical Manual, this chapter evaluates five specific factors that could create significant socioeconomic impacts in an area, including: (1) direct displacement of residential population; (2) direct displacement of existing businesses; (3) indirect displacement of residential population; (4) indirect displacement of businesses; and (5) adverse effects on specific industries not necessarily tied to a project site or area. This analysis begins with a preliminary assessment for each specific issue of concern. According to the CEQR Technical Manual, the goal of a preliminary assessment is to discern the effects of a proposed project or action for the purposes of either eliminating the potential for significant impacts or determining that a more detailed analysis is necessary to answer the question regarding potential impacts.

  • FIRST QUARTER 2016 Manhattan Market Overview
    FIRST QUARTER 2016 Manhattan Market Overview Partnership. Performance. avisonyoung.com New Jersey Ofce Market MonitorFIRST QUARTER 2016 Partnership. Performance. With 2016 being one-quarter over, we present you with our First Quarter 2016 Manhattan Market Overview. Included inside are Avison Young’s insights on ofce leasing, investment sales, debt & equity, valuation & advisory and retail activity. Please note that with respect to our ofce leasing market data, we have now consolidated our submarkets. As such, the number of submarkets included within each major Manhattan market has been refned and now comprises six areas for Midtown (down from nine), four for Midtown South (down from six) and Downtown remains at three. We have provided descriptions of the markets and submarkets in the “About the Market” section at the end of this report. Regarding overall activity for the frst quarter, despite seeing some signs of year-over-year softness due in part to the global volatility experienced in the beginning of the quarter, the Manhattan market has held up favorably. With respect to ofce leasing, it is the fnancial services and TAMI tenants that are driving much of the growth. However, we are mindful that tenants of all types remain focused on value, while having access to suitable amenities attractive to their business and workforce. With respect to investment sales activity, coming of the heels of a record transaction year, there are some signs that we are starting to see a change in sentiment as investors and market participants take a cautious stance and are hesitant to match the pricing that was commonplace six months ago.

  • Federal Railroad Administration Record of Decision for the East Side Access Project
    Federal Railroad Administration Record of Decision For the East Side Access Project September 2012 SUMMARY OF DECISION This is a Record of Decision (ROD) of the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), an operating administration of the U.S. Department of Transportation, regarding the East Side Access (ESA) Project. FRA has prepared this ROD in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the Council on Environmental Quality’s (CEQ) regulations implementing NEPA, and FRA’s Procedures for Considering Environmental Impacts. The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) filed an application with the FRA for a loan to finance eligible elements of the ESA Project through the Railroad Rehabilitation and Improvement Financing (RRIF) Program. The ESA Project is the MTA’s largest system expansion in over 100 years. The ESA Project will expand the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) services by connecting Queens and Long Island with East Midtown Manhattan. With direct LIRR service to Midtown East, the LIRR will further increase its market share of commuters by saving up to 40 minutes per day in subway/bus/sidewalk travel time for commuters who work on Manhattan’s East Side. The ESA Project was previously considered in an environmental impact statement (EIS) prepared by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) in May 2001 and subsequent FTA reevaluations and an environmental assessment of changes in the ESA Project. Construction of the ESA Project has been ongoing since 2001. FRA has reviewed the environmental impacts for the ESA Project identified in the FTA March 2001 Final EIS, subsequent FTA Reevaluations, and the 2006 Supplemental EA/FONSI (collectively, the “2001 EIS”) for the ESA Project and adopted it pursuant to CEQ regulations (40 CFR 1506.3).
