The proposal, as approved, consists of the removal of modern assemblies of single light double-hung and transom windows at three bays of the twelfth floor of the north (Watts Street) façade, and installing dark grey painted metal bi-fold doors, with a fixed glass guardrail partition set outboard of the doors, as shown in a digital presentation, titled “75 Varick Street – Horizon Media,” dated March 28, 2017, and prepared by Architecture + Information, including 22 slides, consisting of photographs and drawings, all submitted as components of the application and presented at the Public Hearing and Public Meeting.

  • APPENDIX A. Supplementary Tables
    APPENDIX A. Supplementary Tables Jersey City - Environmental Resource Inventory A-1 Soil Types Table A.1. Soil Types Legend Soil classification reflects the parent material that forms the soil, the soil family, and the slope of the landform. The following information will assist in the interpretation of the Soil Classification table. Capability Class Definition 1 Slight limitations that restrict their use. 2 Moderate limitations that restrict the choice of plants or that require moderate conservation practices 3 Very severe limitations that restrict the choice of plants or that require very careful management, or both. 8 Limitations that preclude commercial plant production and that restrict their use to recreational purposes, wildlife habitat, watershed, or esthetic purposes. In this Table, there are three types of Green Belt soil, each with a different slope range. Slopes are measured in degrees or as a percent; a 450 slope = 100% slope. Each Soil Name is associated with a unique Code. Land Capability Classes reflect the potential for agricultural uses; the higher the class number, the more restricted the potential uses are. The letter that follows the numeric code indicates the reason for restricted uses. For example, Green Belt Loam, 8 to 15 percent slope, is restricted because of the likelihood of erosion. Capability Subclass Definition e The main hazard is the risk of erosion unless close growing plant cover is maintained w Water in or on the soil interferes with plant growth or cultivation (in some soils the wetness can be partly corrected by artificial drainage) s Soil is limited mainly because it is shallow, droughty, or stony Available Water Capacity (AWC) indicates the amount of water available to plants.
