  • Chapter 5: Community Facilities and Services
    Chapter 5: Community Facilities and Services A. INTRODUCTION This chapter assesses the potential impacts of the proposed actions on community facilities and services. As described in Chapter 1, “Project Description,” the applicants, the New York City Department of City Planning (DCP) and SJC 33 Owner 2015 LLC, are proposing a series of discretionary actions (the proposed actions) that would facilitate the redevelopment of St. John’s Terminal Building at 550 Washington Street (Block 596, Lot 1) (the development site) with a mix of residential and commercial uses, and public open space (the proposed project) in Manhattan Community District 2. Community facilities and services are defined in the 2014 City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) Technical Manual as public or publicly funded schools, child care centers, libraries, health care facilities, and fire and police protection services. CEQR methodology focuses on direct effects on community facilities, such as when a facility is physically displaced or altered, and on indirect effects, which could result from increased demand for community facilities and services generated by new users such as the new population that would result from the proposed project. Since the certification of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS), the New York City Department of Education’s (DOE) enrollment projections were updated. Therefore, the public school analysis has been updated for consistency with DOE’s enrollment projections for years 2015 through 2024, the most recent data currently available. In addition, based on guidance from SCA (see Appendix C, “Agency Correspondence”), existing capacity for the Sixth Avenue Elementary School has been updated to reflect 50 percent of the total capacity of this school to be counted towards sub-district 2.

  • Chapter 4: Social Conditions
    Chapter 4: Social Conditions A. INTRODUCTION AND METHODOLOGY This chapter addresses a variety of issues that support social conditions, including population and housing characteristics, community facilities and open spaces, and neighborhood character. The discussion of social conditions considers the entire MESA study area (depicted in Figure 3-1 in Chapter 3, above) with particular focus on the project corridor—the routes proposed for the various project alternatives—where the greatest potential for change would occur. Because none of the project alternatives have the potential to change social conditions in the secondary study area, where Build Alternatives 1 and 2 would add service along an existing subway line, this analysis is of the primary study area only. The analysis was conducted by first compiling existing data for population and housing, com- munity facilities and open spaces, and neighborhood character. The source for the population and housing data is the 1990 Census of Population and Housing. The inventory of community facilities is based on Community District Needs (1997) for Manhattan’s Community Boards, the Department of Parks and Recreation’s Property Lists (dated November 4, 1996), supplementary information provided by the various Community Boards within the study area, and the informa- tion gathered for the analysis of land use, zoning, and public policy in Chapter 3. The assessment of neighborhood character is based on information gathered for other chapters of this document, particularly including the analyses of land use (Chapter 3) and visual and aesthetic considerations (Chapter 6). After assessing the existing conditions in the study area, the expected changes in the future are considered, based on information compiled in Chapter 3.
