    3.0 LAND USE AND ZONING Zoning The city is divided into three basic zoning districts: residential (R), commercial (C), and manufacturing (M). The three basic categories are further subdivided into lower, medium, and higher density residential, commercial and manufacturing districts. Development within these districts is regulated by use, building size, and parking regulations. Here is a brief description of the three basic zoning districts according to the Zoning Handbook: Residential District (R) In New York City, there are ten standard residential districts, R1 through R10. The numbers refer to the permitted density (R1 having the lowest density and R10 the highest) and other controls such as required parking. A second letter or number signifies additional controls are required in certain districts. R1 and R2 districts allow only detached single-family residences and certain community facilities. The R3-2 through R10 districts accept all types of dwelling units and community facilities and are distinguished by differing bulk and density, height and setback, parking, and lot coverage or open space requirements. Commercial District (C) The commercial districts reflect the full range of commercial activity in the city from local retail and service establishmentsDRAFT to high density, shopping, entertainment and office uses. There are eight basic commercial districts where two (C1 and C2 districts) are designed to serve local needs, one district (C4) is for shopping centers outside the central business district, two (C5 and C6 districts) are for the central business districts which embrace the office, retail, and commercial functions that serve the city and region, and three (C3, C7, and C8 districts) are designed for special purposes (waterfront activity, large commercial amusement parks and heavy repair services).

In New York City, it emerged in the context of disinvestment and urban renewal in the 1970s as a means to clean up vacant lots, improve safety, and build social networks within neighborhoods. This study examines contemporary guerrilla gardening projects in New York and addresses the questions of whether guerrilla gardening today can still offer advantages over gardening with permission, and if there are situations in which it makes more sense to garden without permission, versus the alternate position that gardeners should always seek permission to use the land they cultivate in order to protect their interests and investment.

  • How Our Gardens Grow: Strategies for Expanding Urban
    HOW OUR GARDENS GrowSTRATEGIES FOR EXPANDING URBAN AGRICULTURE Gale A. Brewer MANHATTAN BOROUGH PRESIDENT 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Think of farming and agriculture and you are unlikely to visualize the Manhattan skyline. Yet thriving in the back lots, on the rooftops, and in the community centers and the schoolrooms of this dense urban environment are more than 170 community gardens plus a vast array of food-producing hydroponics labs, greenhouses, and urban farms. The benefits of urban farming and agriculture are many and well documented: residents gain a local source of fresh fruits and vegetables, healthier eating habits, and educational opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields. Urban gardening is also good for the community, the economy, and the environment. The Manhattan Borough President’s Office (MBPO) is committed to supporting food-producing gardens and promoting new ideas for urban farming that can be shared across New York City. To learn more about food-producing gardening at Manhattan’s public schools and community centers—the best practices that have allowed these programs to thrive and the challenges that may be limiting their efficacy and development—we undertook a survey of urban farming sites at schools and community centers across Manhattan and compiled our findings into this report. The primary challenge in Manhattan is the intertwined issues of limited space and expensive land, but we also discovered that lack of funding to pursue alternative garden sites, lack of personnel resources, and lack of school time create obstacles that prevent more innovative gardens from sprouting up. Our recommendations for sustaining and boosting urban agricultural programs include increasing city government support, integrating gardening into school curricula and community center programs, reducing garden startup and maintenance costs, creating an urban agriculture network, establishing a citywide training program, and extending school gardening programs in the summer.

The relatively few miles of improved road were around towns and cities (a road was “improved” if it was graded). That year, Carl Fisher (developer of Miami Beach and the Indianapolis Speedway, among other things) conceived a trans-continental highway. He called it the “Coast-to-Coast Rock Highway.” It would be finished in time for the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition and would run from the exposition’s host city; San Francisco, to New York City. Two auto industry tycoons played major roles in the highway’s development: Frank Seiberling - president of Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., and Henry Joy - president of the Packard Motor Car Company. It was Henry Joy who came up with the idea of naming the highway after POTUS Abraham Lincoln. On July 1st 1913, the Lincoln Highway Association was officially incorporated.

    PLACE-BASED COMMUNITY BROWNFIELD PLANNING FOUNDATION REPORT ON EXISTING CONDITIONS EAST HARLEM, MANHATTAN FINAL SEPTEMBER 2016 BILL deBLASIO MAYOR DANIEL C. WALSH, Ph.D. DIRECTOR Mayor’s Office of Environmental Remediation This document was prepared by the New York City Department of City Planning for the New York City Mayor’s Office of Environmental Remediation and the New York State Department of State with state funds provided through the Brownfield Opportunity Areas Program. CONTENTS PURPOSE 4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 5 PART ONE Geography and Land Use 10 Demographic and Economic Profile 28 Recent Public Initiatives and Private Investments 35 PART TWO Environmental Conditions 41 Potential Strategic Sites 43 KEY FINDINGS AND NEXT STEPS 57 APPENDIX 58 PURPOSE This existing conditions foundation report was commissioned by the New York City Mayor’s Office of Environmental Remediation (OER) to help community members and community-based organizations (CBO’s) conduct place-based planning for revitalization of vacant and underutilized brownfield properties. Place- based planning by community groups is supported by OER under the NYC Place-Based Community Brownfield Planning Program and by the New York State Department of State in the Brownfield Opportunity Area Program. To advance implementation of plans, OER provides financial and technical assistance to CBO’s for cleanup and redevelopment of brownfield properties and seeks to help people foster greater health and well-being in their neighborhoods. Brownfields are vacant or underutilized properties where environmental pollution has deterred investment and redevelopment. Pollution introduces many risks to land development and often causes community and private developers to pass over these properties, especially in low-income neighborhoods where land values may be depressed and insufficient to cover added cleanup costs.

  • WINDOWS on the BOWERY the Bowery Is NYC’S Oldest Thoroughfare
    In 1973, artist Liz Christy and her band of volunteers transformed a vacant lot at this site to create the Bowery-Houston Community Farm and Garden. Her Green Guerillas cleared garbage, built soil from police-stable manure, and planted trees, flowers, and vegetables. AT More than 600 community gardens now grace New York City neighborhoods. Generations of volunteer gardeners have enhanced the design, recruited members, and opened this garden to the public weekends and some evenings. In 2004, the garden faced an existential threat from the development of surrounding lots by AvalonBay. Thanks to action from garden members, the community, city officials and the Parks Department, the garden not only survived but was expanded to Second Avenue. The Liz Christy Garden is famous worldwide for its beauty as well as its unlikely formation. With its dedicated, all-volunteer membership, it continues to prosper even as the neighborhood changes. Garden volunteers at beginnings, Spring 1974 Top left: Dawn redwood, Metasequoia glyptostroboides, planted in 1975 Top right: In 2005, demolition of Church of All Nations came within inches of the garden FIRST NEW YORK CITY COMMUNITY GARDEN LIZ CHRISTY GARDEN WINDOWS ON THE BOWERY The Bowery is NYC’s oldest thoroughfare. Originally a Native American footpath and Dutch farm road (bouwerij means farm), it is a cradle of American culture, with seminal links to tap dance, vaudeville, Yiddish theater, Lincoln, Stephen Foster, Irving Berlin, tattoo art, Abstract Expressionism, Beat literature, jazz and punk rock. Though listed on the National Register of Historic Places, out-of-scale developments are displacing its residents, small businesses, and historic character.
