Department of City Planning

Hudson Yards Culture Shed
The Department of City Planning has referred to us an application to amend the Special Hudson Yards District of the NYC Zoning Resolution in order to facilitate the development of a cultural facility known as the "Culture Shed".
The proposed text amendment would modify the requirments of Eastern Rail Yard Subarea A1 regarding use, site plan, and signage requirements, as well as construction timing, floor area calculations, and public access area use.
The Board will be holding meetings on this application throughout the months of February and March - please check the calendar page for dates and times of such meetings - and will hold a Full Board vote on the matter on April 3, 2012.
Click here and here for the application and here for the EAS.

•Shall engage collaboratively with Community Board 4, with a preliminary meeting to take place in 1st quarter 2013

•Shall complete an existing conditions analysis and draft recommendations no later than June 30, 2013.
