Creating an innovative educational and recreational space

New York – The de Blasio administration today officially began a public debate process on a zoning change project for the southern half of Governor’s Island. The effort could result in up to 4.5 million square feet of commercial, academic, cultural and institutional buildings that would complement and financially support the island’s popular parks, community programs and cultural facilities. This redevelopment will build on the city’s work to redesign historic buildings with an emphasis on new development areas to support the job-creating industries and innovative educational that represent the city’s future.
