Conjunto Imagen Celebrates 30Th Anniversary and Nearly a Decade of Performing at Empire City Casino Sunday, May 26 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – Thursday, May 9, 2019 Contact: Lindsay Salandra, Empire City Casino, [email protected] Abbey Ogden, [email protected], (212) 205-6633 Josh Knoller, [email protected], (212) 938-0836 Conjunto Imagen Celebrates 30th Anniversary and Nearly a Decade of Performing at Empire City Casino Sunday, May 26 (Yonkers, NY) – Get ready to salsa and shake on Sunday, May 26 with Conjunto Imagen, the tristate’s premier Puerto Rican salsa band, who will celebrate their 30th anniversary at Empire City Casino, Manhattan’s closest casino with one of the largest entertainment destinations in the northeast. Starting at 8:00 p.m., guests are invited to rumba, dance and enjoy the sounds of Latin music in the Entertainment Lounge. Admission will be complimentary. From playing major clubs in New York City such as the Copacabana and BB Kings Blues Club, to entertainment destinations like Empire City Casino where they have performed for nearly a decade, Conjunto Imagen has been spicing up the tristate for years. The band was founded in 1989 and features 13 members from all over the world. Together they have produced 12 albums and have traveled and performed in Puerto Rico, Canada, Boston, and Washington D.C., among other cities in the U.S. “We’re excited to celebrate our 30th anniversary at Empire City Casino, where we’ve been fortunate enough to build such a loyal fan base over the years. It’s an honor to continue to bring Latin music and culture to such an established destination,” said Ernie Acevedo, Conjunto Imagen’s Leader and General Manager. “Since I was nine years old I always knew I wanted to be a musician, but never did I imagine I’d be playing with 12 other musicians for 30 consecutive years. It’ll certainly be a night to remember.” Empire City’s Latin Night has become a cultural hotspot drawing people of all ages and backgrounds together through the different styles of Latin music. Every Sunday, Empire City turns its Entertainment Lounge into a Latin music destination. Conjunto Imagen has been a community staple for Latin Night attendees for nearly 10 years. Their eccentric sambas and salsas continue to excite Empire City guests. Empire City Casino, Manhattan’s closest casino, is only a short drive from the Bronx River Pkwy, New York State Route 9A and George Washington Bridge and is easily accessible via Metro North, Bus, Shuttle Bus and more (exact point-to-point directions provided here).

  • Chapter 3: Construction Methods and Activities
    Chapter 3: Construction Methods and Activities 3.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter describes the construction methods and activities for the Hudson Tunnel Project’s Preferred Alternative. The Preferred Alternative has two overarching components: (1) the construction of a new trans-Hudson tunnel (the Hudson River Tunnel) and associated surface and rail system improvements; and (2) the rehabilitation of the existing North River Tunnel. To ensure that the passenger rail system continues to operate at existing service levels during construction, the new tunnel would be constructed and put into operation before the rehabilitation of the North River Tunnel occurs. The Project Sponsor that will advance the Project through final design and construction, including compliance with mitigation measures, has not yet been identified. The Project Sponsor may include one or more of the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey (PANYNJ), the National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak), New Jersey Transit Corporation (NJ TRANSIT), and/or another entity that has not yet been determined. This chapter provides an overview of the likely construction methods that would be used for the Preferred Alternative, a discussion of locations where construction would occur, and a description of the potential sequencing and schedule for construction. For the new Hudson River Tunnel, this includes construction of surface tracks in New Jersey from Secaucus to the new tunnel portal in North Bergen; a new tunnel consisting of two tracks in two separate tubes beneath the Palisades, the Hudson River, and the waterfront area in Manhattan; and track modifications near Penn Station New York (PSNY) in Manhattan; and construction of ventilation shafts and fan plants in both Hoboken and Manhattan.1 The rehabilitation of the North River Tunnel includes conventional demolition and construction methods to replace tunnel elements and rail systems.

  • Executive Summary
    Executive Summary A. INTRODUCTION The New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT), in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), proposes to reconstruct a portion of Route 9A between Chambers and West Thames Streets in Lower Manhattan. This area is being considered for reconstruction as a result of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, that destroyed the World Trade Center (WTC) and severely damaged or destroyed additional nearby structures and transportation infrastructure including portions of Route 9A. The proposed project, which is being reviewed under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) as a supplement to the 1994 Route 9A Reconstruction Project Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS), is one of several federally funded Lower Manhattan recovery projects proposed in response to the devastation of September 11, 2001. As a transportation cornerstone in this recovery effort, the project is intended to provide a safe and efficient transportation facility that meets the goals and objectives established for Route 9A, prior to and since September 11, 2001. The proposed project takes into consideration the redevelopment efforts in Lower Manhattan; specifically, those at the WTC Site. These other initiatives have resulted in a new set of existing and future conditions, such as the WTC Memorial, which could not be foreseen in the 1994 FEIS. Therefore, while the project’s goals and objectives from the 1994 FEIS still apply, they have been updated and expanded to reflect this new set of conditions. B. PROJECT IDENTIFICATION / LOCATION Located near the Hudson River between Battery Place and 59th Street in Manhattan (see Figure S-1), Route 9A (also known as West Street) is a six- to eight-lane principal urban arterial with a continuous bikeway and walkway.

  • Transportation
    OSSINING COMPREHENSIVE PLAN Chapter 6: Transportation Goal Improve traffic conditions and roadway safety throughout the Village, increase pedestrian and bicycle opportunities, and support cost effective transit improvements. 6.1 Commutation Patterns As discussed in Chapter 5, Ossining is predominantly a bedroom community for residents who commute to New York City and other employment centers in the region. Demographic data helps to further depict general commutation patterns and trends in the Village. Census data detailed in Table 1 show that the overall number of workers who commute to the Village as of 2017 decreased by 16% since 2002, whereas the number of residents who commute outside of the Village for work has increased. 1 As of 2017, 91% of residents commute to locations outside of the Village for work.

  • Chapter 24: Final Section 4(F) Evaluation
    Chapter 24: Final Section 4(f) Evaluation 24.1 INTRODUCTION This Final Section 4(f) Evaluation evaluates and documents the Hudson Tunnel Project (the Project) in terms of its compliance with the requirements of Section 4(f) as codified at 23 USC 138 and 49 USC 303.1 Section 4(f) governs the use of land from publicly owned parks, recreation areas, and wildlife and waterfowl refuges and publicly or privately owned significant historic sites (collectively, Section 4(f) properties) that may be affected by projects approved or funded by the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT). The requirements of Section 4(f) apply to the operating administrations of USDOT, including the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). FRA has made revisions to this Section 4(f) Evaluation since completion of the Draft Section 4(f) Evaluation for the Hudson Tunnel Project in 2017: • FRA updated the information on parks in proximity to the Preferred Alternative to include one additional park in New Jersey. • FRA added new information to reflect a new construction option in the discussion of proposed construction activities for the Preferred Alternative in Hudson River Park in New York. • For Hudson River Park in New York, the Draft Section 4(f) Evaluation described that FRA anticipated that the proposed construction activities for the Preferred Alternative would qualify as an exception from Section 4(f) as a temporary occupancy of land that would be so minimal as not to constitute a Section 4(f) use. Based on continuing analyses of proposed construction activities in Hudson River Park and consultation with the official with jurisdiction for that park, the Hudson River Park Trust (HRPT), FRA has concluded that the proposed construction activities would result in a use of that Section 4(f) property.

  • 3.7.3 New York Upland Routes Evaluated the Submarine
    Exhibit 3 - Alternative Analysis January 2008 (Revised March 2009) The cable will travel south along (or near) the CSX railroad ROW to the intersection of the CSX railroad ROW and the NYS&W railroad ROW. The cable will then travel east along the NYS&W railroad ROW to the west portal entrance of the abandoned 92nd Street tunnel and then travel through the tunnel under the Palisade Sill. From the east portal of the tunnel, the cable will cross under New River Road in Edgewater, NJ to the landfall location adjacent to the Hudson River. The cable route to the River will be under the parking lot at the southern end of the Edgewater Commons shopping center. 3.7.3 New York Upland Routes Evaluated Since it was determined that the most feasible landfall location in NY was to make landfall between Piers 92 and 94, with HDD operations and a transition point within W 52nd Street, the selection of the upland route to the W 49th Street Substation is driven by the maximum bending radius of the land-based cable. HTP's cable contractor has determined that the cable is capable of making a "hairpin" bend from the transition and splicing location on W 52nd Street back over to 12th Avenue and then south to the Substation. This configuration minimizes construction impacts to City streets. Without the ability to make the bend on W. 52nd Street, the alternative route would be for the cable to continue east on W 52nd street, south on 11th Avenue, west on W 51st Street, and then south on 12th Avenue to the entrance of the ConEd W 49th Street Substation.
