Bay Street Neighborhood Rezoned on Staten Island’s North Shore
The City Council recently gave final approval to the Bay Street Corridor Neighborhood Plan. Years in the making, this plan will help bring as many as 1,000 new jobs, 1,300 affordable homes, investments in parks and schools and a new Cromwell Recreation Center to this neighborhood on Staten Island’s North Shore.
“The era of haphazard or nonexistent planning on Staten Island is over,” said Council Member Debi Rose. “After four years of public meetings, planning and negotiations, we have a long-term blueprint for Bay Street that will eventually transform it to a vibrant, diverse, walkable neighborhood, affordable to a wide range of income levels, with all the amenities residents deserve.”
The Bay Street Neighborhood Plan represents $250 million in investments in housing, public space, waterfront access, education, transportation, economic development and infrastructure. Of that total funding, more than $100 million is new city funding for various projects and initiatives.
