Staten Island
Projects, Studies and Proposals

Active Studies & Proposals:

Staten Island West Shore - Land Use & Transportation Study:
This study will identify ways to coordinate transportation and land use while supporting existing businesses, preserving open space & natural features, and improving access to waterfront & recreation.

Projects:

Fresh Kills Park:
Information on the master planning process led by the Department of City Planning to turn the now-closed Fresh Kills Landfill on Staten Island into a world class park. The resulting Draft Master Plan will guide the site's implementation by the Department of Parks & Recreation over the next thirty years.

Recently Adopted Rezonings*:
