Description: "In the heart of the Lower East Side of Manhattan lies Essex Crossing, an unprecedented development comprising 1.9 million square feet of residential, commercial, and community space. The nine sites on six acres, commonly known as the Seward Park Extension Urban Renewal Area (SPEURA), have sat mostly vacant since 1967 and represent one of the most significant urban renewal developments in the history of New York City. Phased construction is expected to begin in the late Spring/ early Summer of 2015 and to be completed by 2024."

Description: "This site is meant to function as a comprehensive archival record of the Manhattanville area -- as it existed at its earliest stages of development and urbanization in the mid- to late-nineteenth century, through its rapid industralization through the early 1900s, and its slow decline toward the second half of the century. By 2030, Manhattanville will undergo one last, presumably final reincarnation into another Columbia campus. This project is an attempt to capture the neighborhood as it appears now, teetering on the cusp of that next great change."

Description: "Hudson Yards is the future of New York City. Over the next decade the public sector will provide subway service, create parks, deck over unsightly railroad infrastructure and expand the convention facilities. These improvements are anticipated to be completed by 2012; private sector development is expected to occur over a longer period, transforming the area with highrise and midrise office and residential buildings."

Description: "Governor Hochul has unveiled her vision for a new commuter-first world-class Penn Station and revitalized surrounding neighborhood that reflects the community's needs and focuses on public transit and public realm improvements. The plan prioritizes the reconstruction of the existing station while the station expansion and the Gateway Project initiatives, both of which the Governor strongly supports, continue on their federally-established timelines. Governor Hochul's new plan thus allows the expedited reconstruction of the existing Penn Station, 60% of whose users are subway and LIRR riders."

Description: "We are a grassroots, non-partisan neighborhood group in Western Queens that's fighting for a better quality of life, against displacement, for the protection of small businesses, and for better infrastructure in our communities ... We oppose Sunnyside Yards, not because we are against all development, but because the policies being pushed by the Mayor, city council, and the Real Estate Board of New York (REBNY) would greatly harm Western Queens and, indeed, the entire city."
