DCP History Project

Thu, 03 Nov 2011 08:35:33 EDT

On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the 1961 Zoning Resolution, the Department of City Planning is co-hosting Zoning the City, a day-long conference that will examine the legacy of the 1916 and 1961 Resolutions and cultivate new thinking about zoning as a governmental tool that may be used to address major economic, social, environmental, and physical challenges facing New York City in the 21st century.

In conjunction with the conference, the Department is announcing its History Project and is releasing its collection of documents related to the 1961 Zoning Resolution. This collection includes the landmark 1916 and 1961 Zoning Resolutions, and related additional material. More documents will be added as they are digitized.
