Land Use Study

WASHINGTON HEIGHTS AND INWOOD PLANNING AND LAND USE STUDY

CITY COLLEGE ARCHITECTURAL CENTER
SHEPARD HALL
March 7, 2008
DRAFT

At the close of 2004, members of Community Board 12-Manhattan (CB12) began to seek resources for conducting a neighborhood planning and land-use study covering all of Washington Heights and Inwood, the neighborhoods that make up “Northern Manhattan” and comprise Community District 12 (CD12). After consultation with City agency represen­tatives and their elected officials, CB12’s officers and committee chairs determined that a broad-based, district-wide planning study would aid in identifying priorities and in establish­ing consensus around a set of criteria for evaluating proposed and future development.
