  • 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.

  • First Avenue Properties Rezoning Final Scope of Work for a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement
    First Avenue Properties Rezoning Final Scope of Work for a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement A. PROJECT IDENTIFICATION INTRODUCTION East River Realty Company, LLC (ERRC) proposes to rezone and obtain other land use approvals, including special permits, for four parcels along First Avenue in midtown Manhattan for predominantly residential and commercial mixed-use redevelopment. Owned by ERCC, the four parcels are located between East 35th Street and East 41st Street (see Figure 1). The specific addresses are 616 First Avenue, 685 First Avenue, 700 First Avenue, and 708 First Avenue. The proposed actions would permit development of the parcels with a mix of residential, commercial, retail, community facility, and open space uses. It is expected that development would be complete in 2014. Potential development resulting from Con Edison’s sale of the properties to ERRC was the subject of a Final Generic Environmental Impact Statement (FGEIS) completed by the New York State Public Service Commission (PSC) in January 2004. Because the development program under the proposed actions may result in significant adverse environmental impacts not identified in the FGEIS, a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) is being prepared. The SEIS will analyze the extent to which the development and zoning actions as currently proposed could potentially result in any significant adverse environmental impacts not previously identified in the FGEIS. Specifically, the SEIS will consider differences between the programs and site plans described in the FGEIS and the current proposed program, site plan, and zoning actions and will consider changes in background conditions in the study areas to reflect the current status of planned and proposed projects and the new anticipated year of completion for the current proposed development program.

  • New York City in January 2019, Central Brooklyn, the Bowery, and Bushwick - Elly’S Notes
    New York City in January 2019, Central Brooklyn, the Bowery, and Bushwick - Elly’s notes A view of Manhattan from Brooklyn: Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges The Linguistic Society of America was meeting in New York City on the eastern side of Hell’s Kitchen. Coming to NYC provided a great opportunity to hear talks and also to explore some of the major changes that had taken place when I visited NYC a lot in the 1980s and 1990s. The below is organized in parts: a little on the more well-known parts of Brooklyn, then to Manhattan for a little on the Bowery, and back to Brooklyn for street art in Bushwick. ‘Central’ Brooklyn I came a day early and, with a friend, walked across the better known parts of Brooklyn: DUMBO, Cobble Hill, Boerum Hill, Park Slope, and Prospect Park. As can be seen on the map, Brooklyn occupies quite a large space and has over 2.5 million residents (as compared to 1.6 in Manhattan). In 1898, it became a borough of the City of New York but on its own it would be one of the most populous cities of the US with so many nationalities and languages and such varied neighborhoods. For two other days (really early in the morning), I came back for street art in Bushwick (and Williamsburg). Hell’s Kitchen 1 The make-up of the Brooklyn neighborhoods changes fast, as do their boundaries, due to gentrification. DUMBO has cobble-stoned streets and upscale housing but Bushwick (still) has working class neighborhoods and industrial sites.

  • F. Vehicular Traffic
    Chapter 9: Transportation (Vehicular Traffic) F. VEHICULAR TRAFFIC EXISTING CONDITIONS STREET AND ROADWAY NETWORK Traffic conditions in the study area vary in relation to a number of factors—the nature of the street and roadway network, surrounding land uses and the presence of major traffic generators, and the intensity of interaction between autos, taxis, trucks, buses, deliveries, and pedestrians. The study area contains five subareas, or zones—Lower Manhattan, the Lower East Side, East Midtown, the Upper East Side, and East Harlem—and each has different street and roadway characteristics along its length. East Midtown, the Upper East Side, and East Harlem are characterized by a regular street grid, with avenues running north-south and streets running east- west. Each of the major north-south avenues—First, Second, Third, Lexington, Park, Madison, and Fifth Avenues—are major traffic carriers. There is just one limited-access roadway, the FDR Drive, which extends around the eastern edge of the study area from its northern end to its southern end. A general overview of the character of the street and roadway network in each of the five zones is presented below. Lower Manhattan is characterized by an irregular grid pattern south of Canal Street. Except for a few major arterials, most streets within the area are narrow with usually just one "moving" lane. Travel is time-consuming and slow along them. Pedestrian traffic often overflows into the street space, further impeding vehicular traffic flow. Water Street and Broadway are the two key north-south streets in this area, and carry two or more effective travel lanes, yet are often difficult to negotiate due to frequent double-parked truck traffic.

INTRODUCTION Neighborhood character is an amalgam of several elements that give an area its distinctive personality and help distinguish it from other neighborhoods. These components include: land use; street layout; scale, type, and style of development; historic features; patterns and volumes of traffic; noise levels; and any other physical or social characteristics. However, not all of these elements affect neighborhood character in all cases; a neighborhood usually draws its character from a few determining elements. Using information presented in other technical chapters of this EIS, this chapter examines neighborhood character at the three project sites and the associated surrounding study areas, and analyzes the effects of the Proposed Actions on neighborhood character in these areas. PRINCIPAL CONCLUSIONS The Proposed Actions would have a beneficial effect on neighborhood character on the project sites and in the surrounding study areas. Development of Western Rail Yard would fulfill a long- standing public policy to promote productive use of the site with a lively mix of uses, open spaces, and streets that would complement and support the development in the Hudson Yards area and West Chelsea. Construction of permanently affordable housing on the Tenth Avenue and Ninth Avenue Sites would support the Clinton neighborhood by emphasizing its residential character and the mixed-income character of its residents. DEVELOPMENT SITE The Proposed Actions would change the character of the Development Site, and this change would be, on balance, decidedly beneficial. The site, which presents a blank wall to the surrounding neighborhood on two sides and transportation/maintenance uses where it can be seen, would be transformed with a mix of residential and commercial uses and open spaces, clearly visible and accessible to the public.
