Full DocumentThe Manhattan Community Board 8 197-a Plan for the Queensboro Bridge Area was approved by the City Planning Commission and adopted by the City Council in the summer of 2006. Focusing on the area around the bridge from Second Avenue to the East River, the plan seeks to improve public access to the waterfront, enhance the design and landscaping of existing open spaces, create a linked open space network with uniform streetscape improvements, and develop a new waterfront park on a former heliport site along the river just north of the bridge. |
