Hunter Graduate Students Seek Input on How to Revitalize North Shore of Staten Island
Hunter graduate students from the Urban Policy and Planning program recently held a workshop with residents, non-profit organizations, and business owners of the Bay Street Corridor on Staten Island to determine what improvements might be made, in the midst of big development projects and expected rezoning on the North Shore. The workshop was covered by NY1http://www.ny1.com/nyc/staten-island/news/2016/10/19/graduate-students-seek-input-on-how-to-revitalize-north-shore.html . According to the article on the NY1 website, the students "are teaming up with Staten Island Downtown Alliance, a local development corporation on the north shore that has been around for 40 years." The students will release a final plan in January, which the Alliance says will be "a blueprint they can present to the community boards and city agencies in the future."
