Public Review Processes that Might Apply to NYCHA Properties
A lot of neighborhood change in New York City happens "as of right." That means developers or the City are making changes that are allowed by the zoning and do not need to be reviewed. But there are certain kinds of changes that do require public review under City, State or Federal law. The review processes for these kinds of changes are described on the pages linked below (and linked from properties you can get to via the map).
- When the City or a Developer Wants to Build Something More or Different Than What the Current Rules for the Property Allow
- When a Park or Playground is Being Turned Into Something Else
- When a Change to a Landmarked Property is Proposed
- When NYCHA Proposes Infill
- When Something New Is Proposed on the Waterfront
- When NYCHA Proposes Demolition
- When NYCHA Sells or Leases Property to a Private Owner
- When NYCHA Proposes Preservation Trust Conversion to Section 8
- When NYCHA Proposes RAD/PACT Conversion to Section 8
- Creating an Urban Renewal Area Plan
- When Landmark Designation is Proposed
- When Building or Demolition is Proposed in an Urban Renewal Area
