  • First Avenue Properties Rezoning Final Scope of Work for a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement
    First Avenue Properties Rezoning Final Scope of Work for a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement A. PROJECT IDENTIFICATION INTRODUCTION East River Realty Company, LLC (ERRC) proposes to rezone and obtain other land use approvals, including special permits, for four parcels along First Avenue in midtown Manhattan for predominantly residential and commercial mixed-use redevelopment. Owned by ERCC, the four parcels are located between East 35th Street and East 41st Street (see Figure 1). The specific addresses are 616 First Avenue, 685 First Avenue, 700 First Avenue, and 708 First Avenue. The proposed actions would permit development of the parcels with a mix of residential, commercial, retail, community facility, and open space uses. It is expected that development would be complete in 2014. Potential development resulting from Con Edison’s sale of the properties to ERRC was the subject of a Final Generic Environmental Impact Statement (FGEIS) completed by the New York State Public Service Commission (PSC) in January 2004. Because the development program under the proposed actions may result in significant adverse environmental impacts not identified in the FGEIS, a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) is being prepared. The SEIS will analyze the extent to which the development and zoning actions as currently proposed could potentially result in any significant adverse environmental impacts not previously identified in the FGEIS. Specifically, the SEIS will consider differences between the programs and site plans described in the FGEIS and the current proposed program, site plan, and zoning actions and will consider changes in background conditions in the study areas to reflect the current status of planned and proposed projects and the new anticipated year of completion for the current proposed development program.

Poetry, Peace, International Day of Peace Published by InSpiritry Contributing Editor, Anne McCrady InSpiritry 8936 Cherokee Tr. Tyler, TX 75703 ii LIVING PEACE 2019 Art of Peace Poetry Anthology FOREWORD Each year when we begin planning for our Tyler, Texas, Art of Peace celebration of the United Nations International Day of Peace, September 21, we select a theme to inspire our poetry and visual art entries. This year’s theme is Living Peace. This summer, from across Texas and the United States and around the world, over 130 poems arrived! We were delighted to read the many ways poets interpreted and responded to the idea of Living Peace. After weeks of reading and re-reading every poem received—and being inspired by all of them—our committee made the difficult decision of choosing those to be included in the 2019 anthology. What a surprise to find the selected poets were as wide-ranging as the original submissions. Peace is alive and well in the world! In these pages, you will find outstanding poems from poets in over a dozen Texas cities (Tyler, Temple, Arp, The Woodlands, Houston, Temple, Round Rock, Austin, Dripping Springs, San Antonio, Lytle, Benbrook, Fort Worth, Grand Prairie, and Copperas Cove), from nine other states (Kansas, Ohio, Pennsylvania, California, Minnesota, Massachusetts, Florida, and New York, Virginia), as well as from nine countries beyond the USA (United Kingdom, Canada, Ireland, India, Bulgaria, Israel, Nigeria, Trinidad & Tobago, and Australia)! The collection moves from moments and environs of peace through evidence of the anguishing need for peace to ways we can find and build peace.
