City of New York Local Waterfront Revitalization Program
Throughout New York's history, its waterfront has been key to the City's growth and prosperity. The City's extensive shoreline, including 14 bays, 5 rivers, 2 straits, and its large sound make it by far one of the best natural deep-water harbors in the world with the potential for limitless recreational opportunities for residents and visitors alike. Over the past 50 years, a number of forces have significantly altered the relationship of City to shoreline. Yet, in most instances, the City's waterfront policies have failed to reflect the changed realities. This report sets forth New York City's Waterfront Revitalization program in response to the New York State Waterfront Revitalization and Coastal Resources Act. The report is organized to demonstrate Federal and State approvability.
