Ongoing river research projects include oyster restoration, river conditions, micro- and macro- plastic pollution and environmental DNA.

  • July 8 Grants Press Release
    CITY PARKS FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES 109 GRANTS THROUGH NYC GREEN RELIEF & RECOVERY FUND AND GREEN / ARTS LIVE NYC GRANT APPLICATION NOW OPEN FOR PARK VOLUNTEER GROUPS Funding Awarded For Maintenance and Stewardship of Parks by Nonprofit Organizations and For Free Live Performances in Parks, Plazas, and Gardens Across NYC July 8, 2021 - NEW YORK, NY - City Parks Foundation announced today the selection of 109 grants through two competitive funding opportunities - the NYC Green Relief & Recovery Fund and GREEN / ARTS LIVE NYC. More than ever before, New Yorkers have come to rely on parks and open spaces, the most fundamentally democratic and accessible of public resources. Parks are critical to our city’s recovery and reopening – offering fresh air, recreation, and creativity - and a crucial part of New York’s equitable economic recovery and environmental resilience. These grant programs will help to support artists in hosting free, public performances and programs in parks, plazas, and gardens across NYC, along with the nonprofit organizations that help maintain many of our city’s open spaces. Both grant programs are administered by City Parks Foundation. The NYC Green Relief & Recovery Fund will award nearly $2M via 64 grants to NYC-based small and medium-sized nonprofit organizations. Grants will help to support basic maintenance and operations within heavily-used parks and open spaces during a busy summer and fall with the city’s reopening. Notable projects supported by this fund include the Harlem Youth Gardener Program founded during summer 2020 through a collaboration between Friends of Morningside Park Inc., Friends of St. Nicholas Park, Marcus Garvey Park Alliance, & Jackie Robinson Park Conservancy to engage neighborhood youth ages 14-19 in paid horticulture along with the Bronx River Alliance’s EELS Youth Internship Program and Volunteer Program to invite thousands of Bronxites to participate in stewardship of the parks lining the river banks.

  • Position Statement ESTABLISHING a NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT
    APA New York Metro Chapter 121 West 27th Street, Suite 705 New York, NY 10001 Attention: David Fields Phone: (646) 963-9229 Position Statement ESTABLISHING A NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT for the HUDSON RIVER PARK The NY Metro Chapter of the American Planning Association is a professional, educational, and advocacy organization representing over 1,200 practicing planners and policy makers in New York City and its surrounding suburbs. We are part of a national association with a membership of 41,000 professionals and students who are engaged in programs and projects related to the physical, social and economic environment. In our role as a professional advocacy organization, we offer insights and recommendations on policy matters affecting issues such as housing, transportation and the environment. The Chapter has taken an interest in the proposal to form a Neighborhood Improvement District (NID) for the area surrounding the Hudson River Park. While we are generally in support of the proposal, we wish to point out a number of concerns we have with what appears to be an emerging trend of relying on alternative sources of funding for what should be a basic governmental responsibility. BACKGROUND The proposal for the NID was introduced by Friends of Hudson River Park, a private not- for-profit organization dedicated to raising funds for the “completion, care and enhancement” of the Park. Hudson River Park is a regional asset that not only serves the west side of Manhattan, but draws people from all around the metropolitan area. The creation of the Park led to a dramatic increase in property values along West Street, 10th, 11th & 12th Avenues and their intersecting streets.

  • Nyc's Waterfront Parks
    NYC’S WATERFRONT PARKS Does Central Park make you think: ―Been there. Done that?‖ Then head to the waterfront. Even New Yorkers are just discovering some of these new green getaways. And with those helpful city bike lanes, doing a tour from one to the next is a great full-day outing, with one-way bike rentals available at key spots along the route. If biking isn’t your thing just hit the park to walk, kayak, watch stunning sunsets, or try to catch a free event from spring to fall. The Hudson River Park This five-mile greenway park hugs the Hudson River from 59th Street to Battery Park. Although the park has a unified design, it’s divided into seven distinct sections that reflect the different neighborhood just across the Westside Highway. The star attraction here—especially for kids—is the Intrepid Sea, Air, and Space Museum at Pier 86 across from 46th Street. A few blocks south, The Circle Line and World Yacht offer boat tours of the Hudson. At piers 96 and 40, The Downtown Boat House (downtownboathouse.org) offers free kayaking. A classic summer experience is the free outdoor movies with popcorn are shown on Wednesday and Friday nights at Pier 54. Chelsea Piers, the mammoth sports center between piers 59 and 61 offers bowling, a driving range, ice skating, even trapeze classes. At Pier 66 Boathouse, you can take a two-hour $60 introductory sailing course with Hudson River Community Sailing (hudsonsailing.org) The park also sponsors free tours and classes including free fishing.

  • TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM No. 4 Pier 57 Redevelopment Project (CEQR No
    TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM No. 4 Pier 57 Redevelopment Project (CEQR No. 11HRP001M) July 15, 2019 A. INTRODUCTION The Hudson River Park Trust (HRPT) issued a Notice of Completion for the Pier 57 Redevelopment Project Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) on February 22, 2013. The project was subsequently approved by the City Planning Commission (CPC) and City Council on March 6, 2013 and April 9, 2013, respectively, and later modified as analyzed in the Technical Memoranda dated December 8, 2015 (Technical Memorandum No. 1/TM1), February 8, 2017 (Technical Memorandum No. 2/TM2), and June 28, 2018 (Technical Memorandum No. 3/TM3). That project (the “previously approved project”), which is under construction, was anticipated to rehabilitate and redevelop the historic Pier 57 site within Hudson River Park (the “project site”) with approximately 466,400 gross square feet (gsf) of office, retail, restaurant, and other commercial uses and educational and cultural uses, as well as a marina and public open space. As discussed below, the developers, Young Woo & Associates (YWA) and RXR Realty, are now proposing modifications to the previously approved project. The proposed modifications would require changes to the program and interior configuration of portions of the pier, but no changes to the exterior design. The anticipated first year of operation for the project is 2020, as previously assumed in TM3. The proposed modifications are being reviewed in this Technical Memorandum in conjunction with HRPT’s pending consent of the developer’s sublease to City Winery New York LLC (City Winery) as a Pier 57 tenant. No other discretionary approvals are required to implement the proposed modifications, because all such approvals, including permits from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and the Army Corps of Engineers, have already been obtained and do not need to be modified.

Battery Park - Castle Clinton National Monument Other Names: Fort Clinton, Castle Garden, West Battery, South-West Battery Castle Clinton is a circular sandstone fort now located in Battery Park at the southern tip of Manhattan that stands approximately two blocks west of where Fort Amsterdam stood almost 400 years ago. Construction began in 1808 and was completed in 1811. The fort (originally named West Battery) was built on a small artificial island just off shore and was intended to complement the three-tiered Castle Williams on Governors Island, which was East Battery, to defend New York City from British forces in the tensions that marked the run-up to the War of 1812, but never saw action in that or any war.
