ILLUSTRATIVE MASSING

Note: Figures and Graphic Depictions are Preliminary and Subject to Modification. 7 1 Density “Density makes mass transit possible. It allows for more affordable housing. It creates environments where people can walk and where children can find playgrounds. It enables us to pool risks. It supports big public hospitals and stronger safety nets. It allows us to curb climate emissions, which present a public health problem of an entirely different kind.

Crucially, it enables the kind of redundancies that make communities more resilient during disasters.”

Emily Badger NY Times March 24, 2020

More Opportunities A New Hub for Jobs and for Local Residents A More Inclusive Community Industries of the Future

Density increases equitable By creating places where people can Cities can create the conditions for a opportunities for long time live and work in close proximity, cities wide range of jobs and industries to residents and new arrivals to create communities where everyone operate in close proximity. Long city neighborhoods. can feel that they have a stake. Island City is particularly advantaged in this way.

Density vs. Overcrowding in Residential Settings

Residential Population Density Internal Residential Overcrowding Average number of people living per acre or Number of people living in a single apartment square mile

http://chpcny.org/density-covid-19-nyc/ “Population density is not the same as household overcrowding… In 2013, the Bronx had New York “Population density is not the same as household overcrowding. The U.S. City’s highest percentage of crowded households census defines crowding as more than one person per room, excluding the (12.4%), followed by Brooklyn (10.3%) and kitchen and bathroom. That means a one-bedroom apartment occupied by four people is crowded. In 2013, the Bronx had ’s highest Queens (9.3%).” percentage of crowded households (12.4 percent), followed by Brooklyn (10.3 percent) and Queens (9.3 percent). Manhattan and Staten Island had 5.4 percent and 3.4 percent crowding. (Nationally, 2 percent of people live in -Mary T. Bassett crowded households.)” NY Times May 5, 2020

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/15/opinion/sunday/coronavirus-cities-density.html NYC Neighborhoods and Covid-19 Case Rate

The Bronx has 400% the density of Staten Island and nearly the same case A number of other factors, especially rate. income levels, healthcare access, and higher rates of pre-existing conditions, are correlated with rates of COVID-19 in different neighborhoods across NYC.

The data does not support a correlation between Covid-19 and Density. Covid Case Rate Neighborhood Manhattan is the densest of the boroughs (06/22) Density yet has the lowest rate of COVID-19.

Community hubs Workforce training

Industry focus Diverse business ownership

Inter-firm relationships Close to residential uses Community & cultural events

Note: Figures and Graphic Depictions are Preliminary and Subject to Modification.30 Strategies to Foster Inclusion & Equity in Mixed-Use Districts

● Support locally-owned and/or M/WBE businesses to generate jobs and empower residents ● Provide robust workforce development and educational programs ● Produce accessible jobs, especially to those who have previously been denied opportunities ● Thoughtfully partner with existing neighborhood organizations to address community needs and mitigate displacement effects

Note: Figures and Graphic Depictions are Preliminary and Subject to Modification.31 Selection Criteria for Case Studies

● A competitive real estate environment ● Significant public and private sector involvement ● Lack of pre-existing research institution or industry hub directly on development site ● A location on the waterfront and/or in formerly industrial conditions
