Legally, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency defines a brownfield as any real property, where development, redevelopment, expansion or reuse is complicated by the presence or potential presence of a hazardous substance, pollutant or contaminant. In practical terms, this means any property that was previously used for certain industrial or commercial activities that may have potentially contaminated the site with low concentra­ tions of pollution. Whether real or perceived, the potential for onsite contamination often deters investment, making brownfield properties an unwanted addition to any neighborhood. These sites often become abandoned, devoid of commercial business activity, and an invitation for negative activity and crime. As “eye sores” they have an adverse affect on neighboring property values, economic development, job creation and other important inter-connec­ tive aspects of neighborhood growth and stability. For this study, a brownfield has been defined as a vacant or abandoned property that burdens the community, is blighted, underdeveloped, and economically disadvantaged and may or may not be contaminated. Additionally, underutilized properties were identi­ fied as they may not be performing to their highest and best use potential based upon the redevelopment opportunities of the larger district in which it is located. Overall, brownfields negatively impact the environment and surrounding area, leaving the onlooker with a poor perception of the quality of life within the community. For this, brownfields often serve as a significant focal point for citywide revitalization plans and implementation strategies. The Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan includes strategies across multiple systems ad­ dressing remedial and redevelopment actions to return these dormant and underutilized sites back to productive use, while simultaneously restoring their environmental quality. The Albany 2030 process was made possible, in part, by the New York State Depart­ ment of State’s Brownfield Opportunity Areas (BOA) Program. The Albany 2030 team recognized early on that in order for the plan to achieve the community’s vision by 2030, revitalizing potential brownfields must and will play a central role. Any brownfield rede­ velopment should be consistent with a broad community vision, such as Albany 2030. This document outlines the City of Albany’s process for investigating the impact of brown­ fields within the community, the methodology for completing a Pre-Nomination Study, and the methodology for selecting target areas for potential future redevelopment sce­ narios, in alignment with the Albany 2030 vision and those goals of the Albany 2030 Plan.

In addition to pursuing the redevelopment of the priority areas outlined here, the City will now be able to move forward on the assess­ ment and revitalization of underutilized sites citywide using the established inventory and methodology as its basis. ---PAGE BREAK--- 3 Introduction Previous City Brownfield Projects and History Brownfields in Albany 2030 Pre-Nomination Study Areas Potential Brownfields Identification Methodology Priority Brownfield Opportunity Area Sites Conclusions and Next Steps 2.0 History of City of Albany Brownfields Efforts Historically, the City of Albany was a successful market for craftsman, lumber, transporta­ tion, and a variety of commercial and industrial services. However, as lifestyle, business demands and infrastructure changed throughout the 1900s, Albany’s more prominent industrial businesses and services closed or downsized, leaving dependent neighbor­ hoods in transition. Although City markets evolved with new establishments, some neigh­ borhoods still reflected the impacts of industrial business and urban sprawl with their collection of brownfield sites and underutilized properties. The City began its endeavor to research brownfields in the early 1990s in response to dropping population rates and the need for readily available developable land due to a changing economy and an expansion of State government ownership. Having a large quantity of government and educational institutions, the City is challenged by a dispro­ portional amount of tax exempt property that is not available for redevelopment. Look­ ing to reverse trends and overcome lucrative misfortunes, the City began to investigate brownfields and other dormant sites for market opportunities, setting a path towards economic recovery. Since 1999, the City has been aggressively pursuing the redevelopment of potential brownfields through funding made possible by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agen­ cy (EPA) and the NYS Department of State. The following summary represents actions specifically associated with brownfields activities within the City under State and Feder­ ally funded brownfield programs. 1999 PILOT STUDY The EPA acknowledged the City of Albany as being an ideal center for commercial and industrial business with a convenient location along the Hudson River in upstate New York, and within close proximity to interstate and Port accessibility. In 1999, through EPA’s Brownfields Program, the City of Albany was awarded competi­ tive grant funding to complete a pilot study, assessing municipally-owned brownfield properties in North Albany, Arbor Hill, West Hill, Sheridan Hollow, the South End and the Port of Albany. The Pilot Study focused on neighborhoods with known historic uses for industrial activi­ ties, and where brownfields had contributed the greatest percentage toward economic decline. These neighborhoods also comprised of a state Economic Development Zone (EDZ) and a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Enterprise Communi­ ty (EC). The Pilot Study also covered more than 4.8 square miles along the Hudson River. One objective of the Pilot Study was to stimulate economic development and job creation within the City’s EDZ and EC areas by establishing a sustainable, community-based brownfields redevelopment program that creates a comprehensive inventory of contami­ nated sites and to perform environmental site assessments on select properties. ---PAGE BREAK--- 4 Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan for the City of Albany Appendix A: Brownfield Opportunity Areas With funding from the Pilot Study, the City conducted further environmental and subsur­ face analysis of three select sites. Two of these sites are located in Arbor Hill and one is in the Corning Preserve. Environmental assessments were completed at the Arbor Hill Gateway Properties Site (also known as Forlani’s Garage Site). Based on the results of the investigations conducted as part of the EPA Pilot grant, the City applied for and received funding from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) under the 1996 Clean Water/Clean Air Bond Act Environmental Restoration Program (ERP). ERP funds were used to remove 13 underground storage tanks (USTs) and associated contaminated soil from the property. This remediation prepared the site for redeveloped into the Henry Johnson Boulevard public park. On-going groundwater monitoring has shown that the UST and soil removal have caused groundwater quality to improve dramatically. With funding from the Pilot Study, environmental investigations were completed at the Henry Johnson Boulevard Site. This site includes 17 properties (11 properties are along Henry Johnson Boulevard, 3 along Clinton Avenue, and 3 along Second Street). Former site uses included several vehicle maintenance and refueling stations, and a laundro­ mat. Based on the results of these investigations, the City applied for and received fund­ ing from the NYSDEC under the ERP. ERP funds were used to remove soil from a former service station that was contaminated with chlorinated solvents. ERP funding is being used to treat groundwater at this location. The Arbor Hill Library, which was completed in 2010, was a successful redevelopment project within this brownfield site. The third area for which the City used the Pilot grant funds was the Corning Preserve, adjacent to the Hudson River. Prior to the development of Interstate 787 and the creation of the Corning Preserve this area had been used as a railroad yard. As the City evalu­ ated the expansion of entertainment venues in the Corning Preserve it used the EPA Pilot funds to conduct an environmental evaluation of this area, including soil and groundwa­ ter sampling. No significant environmental issues were identified. OTHER EPA GRANT FUNDING In 2005, EPA awarded the City of Albany a Hazardous Substances Assessment grant to perform environmental site assessments, review remediation alternatives, and to develop remediation plans for sites contaminated by hazardous waste. This includes properties impacted by dry cleaning operations, repair facilities, industrial/commercial operations, or properties that may contain contaminated urban fill. One year later, EPA also awarded the City a Petroleum Assessment grant to perform en­ vironmental site assessments, develop cleanup plans, and conduct community outreach activities on properties contaminated by petroleum. Assessment and cleanup of these compromised properties will help the City avoid po­ tential public health risks from environmental exposures, while reducing any potential for ---PAGE BREAK--- 5 negative local or regional environmental impacts. Target areas within the City include underserved neighborhoods that contain a disproportionate number of brownfield sites, where remediation and economic development is needed the most. The City continues its effort to improve the economic stability, reduce blight, stimulate job creation, and expand the tax base within the community. BROWNFIELDS TO DATE Since 2006, the Albany Community Development Agency (ACDA) has received over $1,750,000 in Federal and State Brownfields grants. These grants are used to restore polluted properties so that they may be safely returned to productive use. Since January 2008, ACDA has received an additional $262,000 in NYS Brownfields grants. This funding has contributed to the Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan with a BOA Step One Pre-nomination Study and led to the selection of two Priority BOAs for further assessment. Brownfield goals, strategies and projects have been woven throughout the Plan and possible redevelopment scenarios for the two priority sites are described be­ low. This project has also assisted in establishing the City of Albany’s first citywide identi­ fication and assessment of potential brownfield sites and will serve as the foundation for the City’s comprehensive brownfield strategy. ACDA has also received funding from the EPA. To date, ACDA has received over $965,000 in both Environmental Restoration Program Grants and Brownfields Assess­ ment Grants. This funding has been and will continue to be used for investigation of potential hazardous sites, as well as remediation and restoration of these contaminated sites.

It articulates community values and expresses a common desire for positive change. The Vision Statement articulates the relationship between community values, vision, and planning objectives through a detailed community vision narrative that includes the overall Vision Statement and six vision components describing principles through which the vision can most successfully be achieved. Brownfields redevelopment relates to the Vision Statement by providing a mechanism for achieving the vision through the vision components: Safe, Livable Neighborhoods – Brownfields redevelopment provides opportunities to en­ hance existing neighborhoods with diverse residential options, neighborhood support­ ing retail, recreation opportunities, and replacement and rehabilitation of vacant and abandoned properties. Model Educational System – Brownfields redevelopment can help to attract new busi­ nesses, which can provide educational mentorship and continuing education opportuni­ ties for Albany residents. Vibrant Urban Center – Brownfields redevelopment provides the opportunity to connect Downtown Albany with new residential and commercial activity centers and removal of blighted properties. Multi-Modal Transportation Hub – Brownfields redevelopment provides high density de­ velopment patterns and new destinations to support and enhance new and existing tran­ sit, pedestrian, and bicycle facilities. Green City - Brownfields redevelopment restores potentially contaminated and hazard­ ous properties, provides opportunities for high density mixed use development, allows for new energy efficient building techniques, and promotes green infrastructure develop­ ment. Prosperous Economy – Brownfields redevelopment provides opportunities to attract new investment on cleaned sites with related employment opportunities. BROWNFIELDS AND THE ALBANY 2030 SYSTEMS AND STRATEGIES Chapter 3 of the Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan ties together the comprehensive plan vision components into a series of eight interrelated systems with sustainability as an overarching direction. ALBANY 2030 VISION STATEMENT Albany in 2030 has built on its history and diverse natural, cultural, institutional, and human resources to become a global model for sustainable revitalization and urban livability. The City promotes a balanced approach to economic opportunity, social equity, and environmental quality that is locally driven, encourages citizen involve­ ment and investment, and benefits all residents. ---PAGE BREAK--- 8 Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan for the City of Albany Appendix A: Brownfield Opportunity Areas 1.

How these system strategies function and interact with other systems largely de­ termines the performance of Albany as a whole system. To help understand the interre­ lationships between systems and to inform development of implementation projects and priorities, strategies that link across systems are identified as “interrelated strategies.” Brownfields redevelopment features prominently throughout the system strategies, with 39 interconnections across the eight systems. The following table provides an excerpt from the Systems Interrelationships Matrix in Chapter 3 of the Albany 2030 Comprehen­ sive Plan that emphasizes the interconnections involving brownfields strategies. ---PAGE BREAK--- 9 COMMUNITY FORM Total LU-4 Remediate brownfields to restore vacant, con­ taminated properties UD-4 ARCH-3 WW-4 TS-2 4 ARCH-3 Adaptively reuse historic and non- historic structures in brownfields remediation projects LU-4 UD-4 WW-4 TS-2 4 Economy Total INV-1 Make Albany attrac­ tive for business development LU-2 LU-4 UD-1 ARCH-1 ARCH-3 EMP-1 CHR-7 MM-2 TR-2 TR-3 VEH-2 WW-4 TS-2 HDC- 2.b.

Pur­ sue brownfields and land recycling programs to restore properties to the highest and best land use. (Interrelated Strategies: Community Form UD-3, ARCH-3; Natural Re­ sources WW-4, TS-2) Actions: a. Complete a Pre-Nomination Study under the NYS Department of State’s BOA program to inventory potential brownfield redevelopment sites throughout the City, in coordina­ tion with creation of a land use framework map (Strategy LU-1) above b. Use the results of the Pre-Nomination Study to move key clusters of brownfield and underutilized lands through subsequent stages of the BOA process (Step Two – Nom­ ination, Step Three – Implementation Strategy), with the objective of redeveloping targeted sites for productive uses. ARCH-3 Strategy: Adaptively reuse historic and non-historic structures in brownfields remediation projects. Pursue brownfields and land recycling programs to adaptively re­ use historic and nonhistoric structures. (Interrelated Strategies: Community Form LU-4, Natural Resources WW-4, TS-2) Actions: a. Use the brownfield program to fund projects in neighborhoods with a high level of ar­ chitectural and/or historic character and with a large number of vacant or abandoned properties. b. Prioritize funding for brownfield projects to favor projects that reuse existing structures and/or incorporate quality architecture and design guidelines. INV-1 Strategy: Make Albany attractive for business development and appealing to re­ gional economic development practitioners.

See Map 9 and refer to Appendix A for more information on potential Brownfield Opportunity Areas in Albany. (Interrelated Strategies: Community Form LU-4, ARCH- 3; Economy INV-1; Natural Resources TS-2) Actions: a. Create a GIS database of potential and existing brownfield sites using vacancy and land use data and use the results of the BOA Pre-Nomination Study to move through the state process. b. Target priority brownfield sites sites located near waterways or with the poten­ tial for groundwater contamination) for state grant applications through the New York State Environmental Restoration Program as future funding becomes available for re­ mediation. Contaminants found on former industrial or other brownfield sites have the potential to create hazardous runoff that enters nearby waterways or seep into groundwater. c. Develop public-private partnerships to explore creative financing techniques for brownfield remediation. TS-2 Strategy: Encourage brownfield development, adaptive reuse, and infill develop­ ment to improve soil quality, reduce contamination, and limit encroachment on steep slopes. (Interrelated Strategies: Community Form LU-4, ARCH-3; Economy INV-1; Natu­ ral Resources WW-4) Actions: a. Partner with universities to study the potential for innovative brownfield clean up tech­ niques bioremediation, phytoremediation) and encourage their use to improve soil quality and reuse sites. b.

IMPLEMENTATION PROJECTS As indicated in Chapter 4 of the Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan, ongoing brownfields investigation, remediation and redevelop efforts as part of a BOA Program have been recommended. Step One of the BOA Program, the completion of a Pre-Nomination Study, has been completed in coordination with the Albany 2030 Plan, and is outlined within this Appendix. ---PAGE BREAK--- 13 Steps Two and Three of the BOA Program are indicated as a future projects: O-7. Implement a brownfield redevelopment strategy, starting with preparation of a Step Two Brownfields Opportunities Area (BOA) Nominations Study. The BOA program encompasses three steps: the Pre-Nomination Study, the Nomination Study, and the Implementation Strategy. The remaining steps should be the focus of a brownfield redevelopment implementation project for Albany: • Step 2: The Nomination Study is the second step of the BOA process. This step entails an extensive inventory and evaluation of data and trends impacting the study area’s redevelopment potential, including market and economic analysis, identifica­ tion of redevelopment strategic sites, and formulation of strategies to move redevel­ opment forward within the framework of a Master Plan. Effective and inclusive com­ munity participation is a key part of the Step 2 planning process. • Step 3: The final step of the BOA program is to develop an Implementation Strategy, which identifies the specific actions that will be taken to implement the Master Plan recommendations for redevelopment of the strategic sites. Brownfield remediation and redevelopment has been identified as a strategy across multiple systems, in­ cluding Community Form, Economy, Housing and Neighborhoods, and Natural Re­ sources. Brownfield redevelopment is also indicated under several strategies as a leverage point for improving Albany’s image and quality of life. BROWNFIELDS AND SUSTAINABILITY Brownfields revitalization promotes sustainability in numerous ways, including returning abandoned or underutilized properties to productive use, cleaning up environmentally contaminated sites, creating jobs by attracting new investment, and strengthening the social fabric of communities by removing blight and enhancing neighborhoods. Brown­ field sites are predominantly located in urban areas like Albany, which typically accom­ modate higher densities and opportunities for infill and mixed use development patterns that reduce automobile dependency and encourage alternative modes of transporta­ tion, such as walking and bicycling. In addition, brownfields redevelopment provides the opportunity to incorporate green building design and green infrastructure techniques in new and rehabilitated buildings to reduce energy consumption, energy costs, and stormwater runoff.

To begin, the City of Albany used results from a citywide review to determine focus areas that otherwise have potential to benefit the economy and well-being of the community, yet are largely affected by a dense population of brownfields. These focus areas were center to completing a Pre-Nomination Study, “Step 1” of a continued process to inves­ tigate brownfields within the City, and implement cleanup and revitalization strategies. A Pre-Nomination Study provides a preliminary analysis of a potential redevelopment area based on an evaluation of existing brownfield sites and other significant conditions. The City has defined seven BOA Redevelopment Areas and has conducted a field re­ connaissance of underutilized lots, vacant and abandoned buildings, and existing use, conditions and activities within each of these study areas. Of these seven study areas, two have been selected for next step assessments and redevelopment scenarios. Using a Geographic Information System (GIS), datasets were analyzed to delineate the boundaries for the seven redevelopment areas. The limits for the areas were justified based on GIS data, such as current land use distribution, industrial and commercial zoning districts, topography, and existing natural resources. Other information used to characterize the areas included site observations, historic use resources, the potential for economic growth and revitalization, and other community vested interests. The seven BOA Redevelopment Areas were identified through research and analysis conducted by the Department of Development and Planning along with historical back­ ground of these areas. To fully understand the environmental conditions of these BOA Redevelopment Areas, further investigation needs to be undertaken to determine if there is in fact any level of contamination or if a property is in fact underutilized. This will be addressed in future steps of the BOA Program. Any conditions expressed in charac­ terizing these areas during the Pre-Nomination Study are based on public information, documented historical use, and field reconnaissance observations. Attached are a series of two maps for each BOA Redevelopment Area (Study Areas A to A Location Map shows existing conditions, zoning, vacant buildings, empire zones (2006) and potential brownfields. A Land Use Map shows land use based on property use classification codes as assigned by the City’s Tax Assessor, as well as historic dis­ trict boundaries and other neighborhood characteristics. Sub Appendix A outlines property information including land use and zoning for each property within all seven BOA Redevelopment Study Areas. Bolded properties indicate potential brownfields as required by goals defined by the NYSDOS BOA Program. ---PAGE BREAK--- 16 Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan for the City of Albany Appendix A: Brownfield Opportunity Areas MAP 4: BOA REDEVELOPMENT AREA LOCATION MAP The City of Albany Department of Development & Planning provides this figure for illustrative purposes only.

This Study Area is north of Downtown Albany, bounded by railroad tracks and highway infrastructure. This area is in close proximity to the west of the Corning Preserve and Hudson River. Study Area A has historically been used for commercial and industrial business, includ­ ing ironworks, lumber manufacturing, auto services, as well as for coal storage and dis­ tribution. Currently, business in this area includes, metal working, auto services, stone masonry and building supplies and services, warehouse receiving and distribution, as well as some retail stores and commercial business. Additionally, there is a growing activity node centered on food and drink establishments that is spurring a rethinking of the future of this district. Most properties are privately owned, active businesses. Some stakeholders include, Adam Ross Cut Stone, United Trading Co., Whitney M. Young Jr. Health Center Inc. and CW Development LLC. Although Study Area A contains vacant properties and underutilized industrial buildings, it is an active commercial center. There has been recent improvement with new retail and entertainment establishments occupying formerly vacant space along Broadway. As business and public transportation improves, Study Area A could redevelop as a vibrant mixed-use warehouse district with excellent connections to Arbor Hill, North Albany, the Hudson River, and Downtown. Study Area A was the subject of the North Waterfront Redevelopment Strategy in 2002. The concepts presented in the 2002 study must be re-evaluated and updated taking into account current market trends and recent local dynamics. This 2002 study has been reviewed and incorporated into the potential redevelopment scenarios presented below.

Sheridan Hollow rests at the bottom of a ravine in between Elk Street and the Center Square neighbor­ hood and the southern edge of the Arbor Hill Neighborhood. By the late 1800s, Sheridan Hollow was a mixed use neighborhood including businesses such as commercial printing and auto services. The neighborhood experienced frequent shifts in its population as immigrants moved in and out of the area. Currently, Sheridan Hollow is also overwhelmed with large private and State-owned parking lots that nega­ tively impact neighborhood urban design and quality of life. Most of the properties are privately owned. Some stakeholders for the area include, E W Tompkins Co. Inc., Omni Development Corp., Albany Empire Partners LLC, and Touhey Homeownership. Though currently in a rundown state, Study Area B is on the western fringe of many downtown hot spots, including a new high-end condominium redevelopment project. Removing sources of blight, leveraging private investment and increasing residential improvements, Sheridan Hollow could transition into a unique eclectic neighborhood, and a draw for the Downtown market, all while maintaining affordable housing options for current and future residents. Sheridan Hollow has active and engaged stakeholders that will anchor redevelopment efforts. The partners at 255 Orange Street – Albany Center for Economic Success, Af­ fordable Housing Partnership, Community Loan Fund of the Capital District, Community Realty et. al. – have been systematically making strides to move revitalization of this area forward through collaboration with the City of Albany, University at Albany, Touhey Homeownership Foundation, Habitat for Humanity and local property owners.

It in­ cludes industrially zoned, commercial and vacant land bounded by railroad tracks to the west and the Hudson River to the east. The area is highly visible from the Hudson River and the neighboring I-787 highway. With the exception of two properties, all are privately owned and include stakeholders such as, Fourteen Sac Self-Storage, Adirondack Transit Lines, and D & H Railroad. In 2002 the Living History study was completed for a potential waterfront redevelopment project in this area. According to the feasibility study, six combined sewer overflows (CSOs) enter the Hudson River in this area. Discharges from the CSOs contain signifi­ cant waste components, grease, oil and suspended solids. Though discharges from the CSOs into the Hudson River are allowed by the City’s NYS State Pollution Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) permit, they have a negative aesthetic impact on the area, and at certain times produce a noticeable sewer odor. The feasibility study also indicated that any dredging involved during redeveloping the waterfront in this area will likely include disturbing or removing sediments potentially contaminated with biphenyls (PCBs) and other chemical residuals from neighboring CSO discharges. The feasibility study’s narrow focus on only cultural tourism did not provide adequate mo­ mentum to overcome these barriers and induce redevelopment. While tourism resources like the U.S.S. Slater and Half Moon replica are major assets to this district and should play a signature role in its redevelopment, a new more diverse vision for the South Wa­ terfront District must be developed. Overall, this Study Area, with its underutilized lots and vacant buildings, undermines its accessibility and proximity to historic culture and public parks. Study Area C includes valuable land that can connect Albany neighborhoods to its waterfront, inviting high-end residential living and commercial investment. This site has been selected as a priority BOA site. More detail can be found in Section 6 below.

Located within the Arbor Hill Neighborhood, Tivoli Park is 80-acres of wetlands, woods, and open water. The property is owned by the City of Albany. In the 1800s, the City of Albany created a new water supply system consisting of a series of reservoirs, receiving bodies and distribution points, which included the Tivoli Park Preserve. The reservoir system was eventually disbanded due to costly engineering and maintenance upkeep, leaving Tivoli Park as a dumping ground for landfill materials and an outlet for raw sewage. Despite cleanup efforts, Tivoli Park still experiences illegal dumping issues. Tivoli Park also suffers from overgrown invasive vegetation, stagnant anaerobic water bodies, and ongoing drainage issues and flooding events. There is concern regarding contaminated sediments in Tivoli Park Lake due to historic releases from a refining com­ pany upgradient. Study Area D and the surrounding area would benefit from environmental remediation efforts, a water and drainage management plan, and a professional urban park design. With proper engineering and oversight, Tivoli Park can become a valuable natural re­ source, wildlife refuge and sanctuary for community activity and provide green job train­ ing opportunities around urban environmental education, urban park management, phy­ toremediation, and green infrastructure development and management.

One property is 1.8 acres and is owned by Lodi Realty Corp., the other is 2.4 acres, owned by the City of Albany. Historically, this area was used by a wrecking and lumber company that stored auto parts and building debris. According to a Phase I environmental assessment of the prop­ erty, it was also used as a junk yard for over 30 years. According to findings from a po­ tential development review and the environmental assessment, surface and subsurface soils have been impacted by asbestos, heavy metals and other hazardous compounds. The Study Area is currently undeveloped and forested land, zoned for both commercial and residential use. Study Area E is strategically located along a successful commercial corridor, and has remained undeveloped due to concerns over environmental contamination.

Primary stakeholders in Study Area F include the City of Albany, Consolidated Rail Cor­ poration and National Grid Electric and Gas. The Patroon Creek, which starts in Rens­ selaer Lake and flows east to the Hudson River, daylights through a wetland area within the Study Area. Patroon Creek has been contaminated by upgradient sources such as historic releases from a refining company and potentially the Albany Landfill, and is an environmental concern for Study Area F. As in the following Study Area this area was delineated not only because they are underutilized and have potential for environmental concern, but also because their re­ development includes the Patroon Greenway Trail, a proposed bike trail connecting the Pine Bush, Tivoli Preserve, and the Corning Preserve, as defined by Albany’s Bicycle Master Plan.

The City used a variety of information to complete this review, such as historical resources, neighborhood revitalization plans, environmental site as­ sessment reports, and pertinent databases and geographic maps. The City also exam­ ined current land use and neighborhood built environments, as well as commercial and industrial zoning district boundaries to assess brownfield locations. The following data sources were used to conduct analysis and research of the BOA Redevelopment Areas.

The City took inventory of site addresses with certain historic uses or activi­ ties which may have a potential impact on the environment or community. For example, inventories were created for sites with a prior use of auto services, laundry services (dry cleaning and dyeing), gas stations, metal workings, printing services, and lumber activi­ ---PAGE BREAK--- 45 ties. The following table summarizes the approximate counts from the inventory. It should be noted that these businesses did not necessarily all function simultaneously or remain in operation for the entire duration between 1928 and 1986. Some addresses may be counted multiple times if business ownership changed. Map 1 highlights approximate historic locations for these uses and activities. INDUSTRIAL DISTRICTS Historic Use Facility Count between 1928 and 1986 Auto Services 799 Laundry Services (Dry Cleaning & Dyeing) 492 Gas Stations 349 Metal Workings 171 Printing Services 189 Lumber Activities 52 Approximately 4% of City land is zoned for light industrial use and approximately 9% is zoned for general industrial use. These districts have been zoned primarily in the North Albany Neighborhood, along the northern City boundary adjacent to the I-90 and I-87 interstate highways, and within the South End along the waterfront and at the Port of Albany. Map 2 outlines these industrially zoned districts within the City. VACANT BUILDINGS According to the City of Albany, a vacant building is defined as a building that is un­ occupied and left unsecured or secured by abnormal means, or has code violations according to City Code. As of 2000, the City requires owners to register their vacant buildings and secure them in accordance with City Code. If a building is illegally oc­ cupied or ordered unsafe by the Department of Fire, Emergency and Building Services, owners can be cited for code violations. The Division of Building and Codes maintains a list of registered buildings in a Vacant Building Registry. Currently, there are 730 build­ ings registered within the City.

As­ signed property use classifications do not always accurately reflect the current use of a property. For example, a property may be classified as vacant land but is currently in use as a community garden or pocket park by a neighborhood. Approximately 25% of City land is vacant. Map 2 outlines vacant land within the City. UNDERUTILIZED PROPERTY A property is considered underutilized if it is partially maintained or improved, and may only be in use intermittently by the owner. In these cases, the property may not be op­ erating as its highest and best use in the context of a larger area-wide redevelopment scenario. Though the City does not have a property use classification code for properties that are underutilized, the City is interconnected with neighborhood activities and often identifies underutilized lots during field research when planning neighborhood projects or working with neighborhood stakeholders. During a field reconnaissance, the BOA Redevelop­ ment Areas were inspected for concentrations of vacant buildings, parking lots, and properties otherwise considered underutilized in the light of area-wide redevelopment. PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT Albany 2030 involved extensive outreach to community members and key stakeholders for the City. During this outreach, participants identified local challenges and opportuni­ ties including specific sites which were seen as underutilized. In addition, the public was asked to pinpoint redevelopment opportunities in a mapping exercise. These thoughts were collected throughout the two year comprehensive planning process and used to determine community priorities. Sites that were frequently noted during the outreach activities were included in the identification and assessment of the BOA Redevelopment Areas. See the Albany 2030 Plan for a full description of the public engagement efforts. BOA REDEVELOPMENT AREAS The BOA Redevelopment Areas are those opportunity areas selected based on the eval­ uation of the above data sources and consist primarily of light and general industrial zon­ ing and some commercial zoning. Land use within the BOA Redevelopment Areas is a mix of commercial, vacant and industrial uses. Though some areas include parcels used for community or public services and parks and recreation. Two maps are provided for each BOA Redevelopment Area. One map provides existing conditions, zoning, empire zones (2006) and potential brownfields opportunities. The second map provides land use information, as well as historic district boundaries and other area information. Table 1 outlines properties within each of the seven BOA Redevelopment Areas. The table also identifies land use and zoning for each property.

Of the seven BOA study areas, two were selected to further research and potential redevelopment scenario design. Within each BOA redevelopment area, potential brownfield opportunities were identified utilizing a variety of criteria including: the concentration of sites having historic activities suggestive of potential environmental concern, vacant buildings and lots, historic and existing industrial districts and land use, and existing development activities and op­ portunities. Based upon this analysis, all seven study areas have merit for further evalu­ ation and planning initiatives. However, keeping in alignment with Albany 2030’s vision and goals, two study areas were prioritized for alternative redevelopment scenarios and concept plans. The following Albany 2030 vision components and interconnected keys outlined below were used to prioritize the BOA redevelopment areas. 1. Safe, Livable Neighborhoods Every neighborhood in Albany is a desirable place to live because of its walkable streets, historic architecture, range of housing choices, mixed-use neighborhood centers, qual­ ity schools, parks and recreation facilities, and easy access to Downtown Albany and other job centers. 2. Model Educational System Albany nurtures its most valuable resources, its children, by promoting excellence in education at all levels. The City’s institutions of higher education are valued resources and partners in initiatives to expand economic opportunities, enhance work force skills, and promote lifelong learning. 3. Vibrant Urban Center As the capital of New York and a destination for work, play, and tourism, Albany is the region’s primary center of government, education, health care, employment, and the arts. Downtown Albany is a vibrant mix of business, residential, educational, cultural, and entertainment uses connected to the Hudson River waterfront. 4. Multi-Modal Transportation Hub Albany’s neighborhoods and centers are connected to each other and to the rest of the region by an extensive, efficient, and safe network of complete streets, mass transit, bikeways, trails, and sidewalks. 5. Green City Albany is a model of community health and sustainability in its planning, restorative de­ velopment, and conservation of energy, water, and natural resources. ---PAGE BREAK--- 52 Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan for the City of Albany Appendix A: Brownfield Opportunity Areas 6. Prosperous Economy The city is a pillar of the regional and global economies, providing good employment opportunities for all residents with a focus on green jobs and technology. Additionally, the Four Interrelated Keys to Achieving the Vision Statement served as a guide for evaluation for prioritizing the BOA redevelopment areas: 1. Improve Albany’s image and quality of life: Change Albany’s reputation in the region and beyond to become known as a great place to live, visit, and do business by building on assets, marketing positive attributes, and countering negative perceptions (particu­ larly related to schools and public safety). 2. Increase fiscal capacity: Provide quality, cost-effective City public facilities and ser­ vices by increasing the tax base and seeking equitable revenue contributions from tax- exempt institutions. 3. Facilitate and mobilize private investment: Remove barriers and provide incentives for infill development, adaptive reuse, and redevelopment, and leverage institutional re­ sources to attract private investment. 4. Establish Albany’s reputation as a Green Community: Employ green development and operational practices that protect natural resources, enhance opportunities for physical activity and reduce energy consumption. These four interrelated keys are of particular importance when considering the rede­ velopment of large land areas, as their language was directly from input provided by public and community stakeholders during outreach activities, as well as data on existing conditions and trends, to identify broad “strategic directions” for ac­ complishing the deeper systemic changes needed if the 2030 vision is to be realized. After comparing the seven BOA redevelopment areas against the Albany 2030 vision statement and associated keys, each of the seven sites was ranked according to the table below. The two study areas most suited for alternative redevelopment scenarios and concept designs were the North Albany Warehouse District and the South Water­ front District. Both of these study areas have particular appeal for the community and the potential for the greatest overall redevelopment impact.

Bound by the Hudson River to the east, Manor and Tivoli Streets to the north, N. Pearl Street to the west, and Livingston Avenue and the Corning Preserve to the south, this area is predominately industrial in nature with supplemental residential, commercial, and recreational uses. The potential redevelopment scenarios described later in this section build upon the many assets and opportunities found in a district that has had a long history as a working waterfront. Long-standing landmarks, such as the Miss Albany Diner are currently anchoring the rejuvenation of the district into a burgeoning activity center focused on food, drink, and entertainment. This new activity center, coupled with existing speciality businesses, a strong industrial job base, a grow­ ing downtown residential market, a residential base in the Arbor Hill neighborhood to the west, and the recreational opportunities associated with the Corning Preserve, makes the North Warehouse District a prime priority brownfield opportunity area.

The pro­ posed rehabilitation or replacement of the Livingston Avenue Bridge would provide a direct pedestrian and bicycle link across the Hudson River, as well as the opportunity for a direct stop of the Empire Corridor High Speed Rail Line. The potential for the de­ construction and redesign of Interstate 787, would not only allow for improved access to the waterfront, but open up additional land for recreational and mixed commercial and residential use. RELATIONSHIP TO ALBANY 2030 SYSTEMS 1. Community Form The goals of the Community Form System are to promote development of a balanced future land use pattern that supports realization of the Albany 2030 Vision Statement; promote development patterns that include walkable streets, compact, mixed use de­ velopment, public spaces, and context sensitivity; capitalize on diverse architectural and neighborhood-specific character to maintain and revitalize neighborhoods; and pre­ serve and restore existing buildings that are vacant or underutilized through adaptive reuse while allowing for new development and new architecture. Redevelopment of the North Warehouse District supports each of these goals by: • Following the Land Use Framework Map by establishing a mixed use, regional activ­ ity center at the North Warehouse brownfield opportunity site. • Extending the downtown and adjacent compact neighborhood development pat­ terns to the waterfront and enhancing multi-modal connections to the waterfront. • Restoring existing structures and underutilized properties to productive use. • Preserving the existing warehouse district character and historic architecture while incorporating new, context sensitive architectural and urban design features. 2. Economy The goals of the economy system are to increase employment opportunities at all ed­ ucation/skill levels, and raise local incomes; encourage investment and reinvestment throughout Albany that supports economic development and placemaking; and create economic resilience through diversity. Redevelopment of the North Warehouse District supports each of these goals by: • Attracting investment and reinvestment to an area with ample development oppor­ tunity, access to the regional transportation network, multi-modal access, and the amenity of the waterfront. • Incorporating retail and commercial opportunities to support local businesses and provide local employment. ---PAGE BREAK--- 55 3. Social The goals of the social system are to elevate the quality of Albany’s educational system to a high standard based on established targets; Improve community health through increased access to recreation opportunities, healthy food, and healthcare; improve and maintain public safety in all parts of the City; promote and enhance arts and culture in the City; and improve the social well-being of Albany citizens in need. Redevelopment of the North Warehouse District supports several of these goals by: • Improving community health by cleaning contaminated sites. • Providing new recreational opportunities at the waterfront, including pedestrian con­ nections to waterfront trails. • Improving public safety by revitalizing blighted properties and enhancing street ac­ tivity. 4. Transportation The goals of the transportation system are to increase options to the private automobile to move people within and between Albany, the Capital Region, and beyond; provide for safe pedestrian and bicycle mobility throughout the City; increase transit options and transit use; improve vehicular connections to and within Albany to facilitate circulation and reduce congestion, while addressing impacts on the City fabric; Improve capacity and service at the Port of Albany; and maintain Albany Airport as a regional hub for air travel. Redevelopment of the North Warehouse District supports several of these goals by: • Improving pedestrian, bicycle, and transit connections to the waterfront and con­ necting to regional trails. • Improving vehicular circulation to and around the waterfront with improved signage, parking and street connections. • Creating mixed use, compact development patterns that reduce automobile depen­ dency and provide safe pedestrian and bicycle mobility. 5. Natural Resources The goals of the natural resources system are to preserve and protect the City’s water­ ways; protect and enhance the City’s urban forest, including nature preserves, parks, open space, street trees, and trees planted on private property; protect, enhance, re­ store, and expand the City’s natural habitat areas; maintain and improve the air quality; protect steep slopes and soils from development encroachment, erosion, and contami­ nation; and protect and enhance the City’s open space network.

Housing and Neighborhoods The goals of the housing and neighborhoods system are to provide a range of decent, affordable housing choices, densities, ownership opportunities, and price ranges to ac­ commodate the housing needs of existing and new residents; maintain distinct, safe, quality neighborhoods that preserve and enhance the natural beauty, historic/architec­ tural character, and cultural diversity of Albany; and provide access to basic neighbor­ hood services, including commercial centers, parks, schools, transit, police protection, libraries, community centers, etc., for all neighborhoods. Redevelopment of the North Warehouse District supports all of these goals by: • Providing opportunities for new high to medium density residential development. • Connecting existing neighborhoods to the waterfront and enhancing adjacent neighborhoods. • Providing new opportunities for neighborhood serving retail, employment, recre­ ation and transit. • Preserving the existing warehouse district character and historic architecture while incorporating new, context sensitive architectural and urban design features. • Providing improved access to the Hudson River waterfront. 7. Utilities and Infrastructure The goals of the utilities and infrastructure system are to promote energy conservation, efficiency, and use of renewable technologies as a mechanism for climate change miti­ gation; maintain the quality of the City’s wastewater management system, conserve wa­ ter, and protect the City’s drinking water supply; use stormwater management best prac­ tices to reduce impacts on water quality and mitigate costs of engineered stormwater systems; increase recycling and reduce the solid waste stream; and provide equitable communication opportunities for communities throughout the City. ---PAGE BREAK--- 57 Redevelopment of the North Warehouse District supports several of these goals by: • Providing opportunities for green building design and green infrastructure in new and renovated buildings to conserve energy, water, and reduce stormwater runoff. • Creating mixed use, compact development patterns that reduce vehicle miles trav­ elled and greenhouse gas emissions. 8. Institutions The goals of the institutions system are to foster relationships and create new partner­ ships among the different levels of government, surrounding municipalities, and institu­ tions that focus on cooperative planning for growth and development; work together to ensure that government and institutional facilities and projects promote mutual benefits; and to address the positive and negative impacts of government and institutional expan­ sion on the City’s tax base. Redevelopment of the North Warehouse District supports these goals by: • Attracting private investment to offset the fiscal impacts of institutional development. • Working cooperatively with institutional and corporate partners such as CSX and Amtrak. EFFECT ON ALBANY 2030 KEYS TO ACHIEVING THE VISION STATEMENT The four keys to achieving the Albany 2030 Vision Statement, as described in Chapter 4.0, were developed by analyzing and input received from the public and community stakeholders, as well as data on existing conditions and trends, to identify broad “strategic directions” for accomplishing the deeper systemic changes needed if the Albany citizens vision in the year 2030 is to be realized. Brownfields revitalization in general most directly targets Keys 3 and 4, which emphasize attracting private investment through reuse and redevelopment and cleaning sites to improve environmental quality. Redevelopment of the North Warehouse District brown­ fields opportunity site affects all of the keys in several ways, which makes it a significant leverage point for achieving the Albany 2030 vision. Several example strategies were identified for each of the keys to target the needed change in Albany as a system to make the key happen. Redevelopment of the North Warehouse District directly incorporates the following strategies: 1.

Several nuanced scenario options are presented here in order to guide the BOA Step Two process while allowing for/reinforcing the flexibility necessary to effectively revitalize this District. These concepts portray general use plans and are designed to stimulate conversation about and assessment of revitalization plans for the District. Due to the positive activity occurring in the West Warehouse and Gateway zones, rede­ velopment plans for these areas remain consistent across each scenario. The relatively underutilized nature of the East Warehouse zone, however, lends itself to more diversity and flexibility in revitalization plans. Each scenario, therefore, focuses on varied use op­ portunities for this zone. Key development opportunity sites are highlighted on the development concept maps provided for each scenario. These sites have greater potential for redevelopment be­ cause of their location, existing building condition, and potential for acting as for ongoing redevelopment in the district. For each development concept map, the same streetscaping improvements and circulation improvements are proposed to enhance the visual character, pedestrian experience, and transportation access throughout the sites. Scenario One – Large-Scale Specialty Retail Concept Overview Scenario One provides a mix of medium and high density residential, neighborhood scale retail, entertainment, and commercial land uses with large-scale specialty retail uses as the central theme. This concept plan consists of three primary development zones: The East Warehouse District, the West Warehouse District, and the Gateway Dis­ trict. Introduction Previous City Brownfield Projects and History Brownfields in Albany 2030 Pre-Nomination Study Areas Potential Brownfields Identification Methodology Priority Brownfield Opportunity Area Sites Conclusions and Next Steps ---PAGE BREAK--- 60 Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan for the City of Albany Appendix A: Brownfield Opportunity Areas Conceptual Uses The East Warehouse District includes the area along I-787 and the waterfront, which con­ sists of a mix of large-scale specialty retail stores, luxury high rise residential living, and specialty neighborhood supporting retail fronting primarily on Montgomery St. and Erie Blvd. The large-scale specialty retail stores are characterized by medium to large build­ ing footprints that can accommodate, for example, full service grocery stores, furniture stores, home improvement, department stores, etc. These facilities are ideally located in this district due to direct access to I-787, high visibility from I-787, and roadways able to accommodate associated heavy traffic flow (Erie Blvd., Montgomery St., Broadway). Structured parking is provided to accommodate the high intensity of uses without dis­ rupting the high density urban land use pattern. Structured parking in this district could be “wrapped” in retail uses to protect the views of the City from the waterfront. Pocket parks are also proposed for this district to provide an open space amenity for residents, shoppers, and visitors. The West Warehouse District includes the area between Erie Blvd., the west side of Broadway, and the rail line. This district consists of a mix of converted warehouses to residential loft living, existing light industrial uses, and boutique entertainment and retail uses – enhancing the emerging restaurant and entertainment corridor along Broadway. The entertainment corridor should include a mix of residential, retail, restaurants, and bars to attract night life, but should also include some restrictions on noise levels and proliferation of night clubs to protect existing neighborhoods and proposed new residen­ tial areas from associated nuisance activities. The West Warehouse District also includes structured parking to accommodate the proposed residential, light industrial, and en­ tertainment uses while maintaining the existing urban character. Pocket parks are also included in this district to provide an open space amenity for residents and visitors and to improve the visual appearance of the street frontage on Broadway. The Gateway District consists of existing historic row houses adjacent to the active rail line that are primarily vacant and in poor condition. The Gateway District concept pro­ poses to reuse the existing structures where feasible and add new context sensitive medium density residential development to provide a transition from surrounding historic neighborhoods to the high intensity North Warehouse District. A landscaped buffer zone is proposed to protect the new residential area from the active rail line. Key development opportunities are highlighted on the maps. These sites have greater potential for redevelopment because of their location, existing building condition, and potential for acting as for ongoing redevelopment in the district. Throughout the North Warehouse District redevelopment scenario, streetscaping improvements and circulation improvements are proposed to enhance the visual character, pedestrian ex­ perience, and transportation access through the site. Sidewalk improvements with street ---PAGE BREAK--- 61 Introduction Previous City Brownfield Projects and History Brownfields in Albany 2030 Pre-Nomination Study Areas Potential Brownfields Identification Methodology Priority Brownfield Opportunity Area Sites Conclusions and Next Steps MAP 5A: WAREHOUSE DISTRICT - SPECIALTY RETAIL CONCEPT This map is for discussion purposes only and does not represent an actual endorsement by the City of Albany of the depicted redevelopment scenario for the entire area or any specific parcel. ---PAGE BREAK--- 62 Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan for the City of Albany Appendix A: Brownfield Opportunity Areas trees, lighting and other streetscape amenities are concentrated along all major and side streets, with a special emphasis on through streets that cross under I-787 to provide safe and comfortable access to the waterfront trail, Corning Preserve, and the proposed pedestrian and bicycle trail on the replaced Livingston Avenue Bridge. The potential Bus Rapid Transit line along Broadway will be enhanced with streetscape and transit amenities, as well as high density, transit supportive development along the Broadway corridor. Scenario Two – Urban Square Concept Overview Scenario Two provides a mix of medium and high density residential, neighborhood scale retail, and entertainment land uses with a large urban square providing a central placemaking focal point. Like Scenario One, this concept plan consists of three primary development zones: The East Warehouse District, the West Warehouse District, and the Gateway District. Conceptual Uses The East Warehouse District includes the area along I-787 and the waterfront, which consists of mixed income high rise residential development with neighborhood scale retail surrounding a large urban square. The urban square anchors the district, provid­ ing an open space amenity as well as a central venue for potential outdoor concerts, festivals, art fairs, and other cultural activities. One structured parking facility is provided to accommodate the high density residential and retail uses. As in Scenario One, the parking structure could be “wrapped” in retail uses to protect the views of the City from the waterfront. Providing pedestrian connections between other areas of the warehouse district and the Corning Preserve will also be a key element of this concept. The West Warehouse District is unchanged between Scenario One and Scenario Two, featuring a mix of converted warehouses to residential loft living, existing light industrial uses, and boutique entertainment and retail uses; structured parking; and pocket parks. The Gateway District is unchanged between Scenario One and Scenario Two, featuring reuse of the existing historic row houses where feasible, new context sensitive medium density residential development; and a landscaped buffer zone to protect the new resi­ dential area from the active rail line. Key development opportunities are highlighted on the maps. These sites have greater potential for redevelopment because of their location, existing building condition, and potential for acting as for ongoing redevelopment in the district. As in Scenario One, the same streetscaping improvements and circulation improvements are proposed to enhance the visual character, pedestrian experience, and transportation access throughout the site. ---PAGE BREAK--- 63 Introduction Previous City Brownfield Projects and History Brownfields in Albany 2030 Pre-Nomination Study Areas Potential Brownfields Identification Methodology Priority Brownfield Opportunity Area Sites Conclusions and Next Steps MAP 5B: WAREHOUSE DISTRICT - URBAN SQUARE CONCEPT This map is for discussion purposes only and does not represent an actual endorsement by the City of Albany of the depicted redevelopment scenario for the entire area or any specific parcel. ---PAGE BREAK--- 64 Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan for the City of Albany Appendix A: Brownfield Opportunity Areas Scenario Three – Sports and Recreation Concept Overview Scenario Three provides a mix of indoor recreational facilities, medium and high density residential development, neighborhood scale retail, sports facility related retail, and en­ tertainment land uses, with large scale indoor recreation facilities as the central focus. Like Scenario One, this concept plan consists of three primary development zones: The East Warehouse District, the West Warehouse District, and the Gateway District. Conceptual Uses The East Warehouse District includes the area along I-787 and the waterfront, which consists of a mix of medium density residential development and large scale indoor rec­ reation facilities and related small scale retail. The large-scale indoor recreation facilities provide a regional destination to the waterfront with excellent access from I-787, access from the planned BRT line along Broadway. The sport facilities can accommodate indoor soccer, hockey, and other sport fields; tennis, basketball, and other court games; indoor swimming; and other sports activities for leagues and persons of all ages. The facilities also complement the recreational trails and activities in the Corning Preserve. The West Warehouse District is unchanged between Scenario One and Scenario Two. The Gateway District is unchanged between Scenario One and Scenario Two Key development opportunities are highlighted on the maps. These sites have greater potential for redevelopment because of their location, existing building condition, and potential for acting as for ongoing redevelopment in the district. As in Scenario One, the same streetscaping improvements and circulation improvements are proposed to enhance the visual character, pedestrian experience, and transportation access throughout the site. Scenario Four – Marina Overview Scenario Four provides a mix of outdoor and indoor recreational facilities, marina-as­ sociated retail, medium and high density residential development, neighborhood scale retail, boutique and entertainment retail, warehouse loft-style residential development, and light industrial (existing) uses. Like Scenario One, this concept plan consists of three primary development zones: the East Warehouse District, the West Warehouse District, and the Gateway District. ---PAGE BREAK--- 65 Introduction Previous City Brownfield Projects and History Brownfields in Albany 2030 Pre-Nomination Study Areas Potential Brownfields Identification Methodology Priority Brownfield Opportunity Area Sites Conclusions and Next Steps MAP 5C: WAREHOUSE DISTRICT - SPORTS AND RECREATION CONCEPT This map is for discussion purposes only and does not represent an actual endorsement by the City of Albany of the depicted redevelopment scenario for the entire area or any specific parcel. ---PAGE BREAK--- 66 Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan for the City of Albany Appendix A: Brownfield Opportunity Areas Conceptual Uses The East Warehouse District includes the area along I-787 and the waterfront, which consists of a mix of medium density residential development, marina, Hudson River Envi­ ronmental Center, and an enhanced or relocated rowing facility. The large-scale marina and enhanced rowing facility will provide a regional destination to the waterfront with excellent access from I-787 and access from the planned BRT line along Broadway. This concept also has the potential to accommodate an indoor sports facility (as proposed in Scenario Three) that could house indoor soccer, hockey, and other sport fields; tennis, basketball, and other court games; indoor swimming; and other sports activities for per­ sons of all ages. These facilities complement and would be connected to the recreational trails and activities in the Corning Preserve. The West Warehouse District is unchanged between Scenarios One, Two, and Three. The Gateway District is unchanged between Scenarios One, Two, and Three. Relationship to Albany 2030 Although each of the redevelopment concept scenarios for the North Warehouse District have a different central theme, each concept plan targets many system strategies iden­ tified in the Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan, most notably those that address invest­ ment, neighborhood quality, community health and recreation, multi-modal transporta­ tion access, and environmental quality, including: • Cleaning of environmentally contaminated sites • Replacement and/or reuse of vacant and abandoned properties • Protecting existing architectural character • Enhancing safety and visual quality for adjacent neighborhoods • Improving visual quality of the waterfront • Improving multi-modal access to the waterfront • Increasing private investment and contributing to the tax base • Retaining existing industrial businesses and jobs • Providing transportation options • Providing retail service opportunities at various scales (neighborhood, city-wide, regional) • Providing opportunities for full service grocery facilities and access to healthy food • Providing diverse housing options and increasing the downtown residential popula­ tion • Increasing residential and commercial activity in the downtown • Increasing the urban forest and improving air quality with new landscaping and street trees ---PAGE BREAK--- 67 Introduction Previous City Brownfield Projects and History Brownfields in Albany 2030 Pre-Nomination Study Areas Potential Brownfields Identification Methodology Priority Brownfield Opportunity Area Sites Conclusions and Next Steps MAP 5D: WAREHOUSE DISTRICT - MARINA CONCEPT This map is for discussion purposes only and does not represent an actual endorsement by the City of Albany of the depicted redevelopment scenario for the entire area or any specific parcel. ---PAGE BREAK--- 68 Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan for the City of Albany Appendix A: Brownfield Opportunity Areas • Protecting water quality by reducing contaminated stormwater runoff into the Hud­ son River • Providing year-round recreational opportunities for persons of all ages (Sports and Recreation and Marina scenarios) NYS DOS BOA Program Next Steps The four scenarios outlined above provide visions with minor variations for the redevel­ opment of this vital district; however, the challenges and next steps are similar for all. The NYS BOA Program can provide the necessary funding to help the City move one these visions forward. District specific next steps that could aid in redevelopment and be eligible for future BOA funding include: • An evaluation of the feasibility of developing a district energy system; • A study evaluating the economic potential for decking over I-787 to provide ad­ ditional mixed-use/recreational development and better connections to the Hudson River; • A study evaluating the feasibility of a commuter rail stop within the district; • A market study to determine the potential for market-rate housing and commercial (re)development within the district; • An engineering study identifying existing infrastructure condition and capacity; • A mobility study evaluating connections between the district, downtown, and adja­ cent neighborhoods; and • A building inventory of existing condition and market potential ---PAGE BREAK--- 69 BOA REDEVELOPMENT STUDY AREA C - SOUTH WATERFRONT DISTRICT The South Waterfront district is a small industrial district that offers unparalleled Hudson River waterfront access and views, but which is substantially disconnected from the rest of the city by Interstate-787 to the west and north and the Port of Albany to the South. The obvious opportunities for this district revolve around a concentration of underutilized structures and parcels within a prime waterfront location that particularly lends itself to diverse uses such as residential, commercial, and water-related activities. The district is in close proximity to Downtown Albany and the historic South End neighborhood and has good pedestrian and bicycle access to the Corning Preserve and the proposed Albany County Rail Trail. Additionally, there is a growing art and culture presence within the district and that coupled with existing commercial and industrial uses provides a strong basis for visionary redevelopment. However, the isolation noted above creates key bar­ riers that need to be addressed. This district has historically been a waterfront-based industrial district, as can be seen in terms of its location next to the Port of Albany and an active CSX rail line. These two barriers, in concert with Interstate-787 need to be addressed to fully realize the rede­ velopment scenarios outlined below. Similar to the North Warehouse District, the South Waterfront District would benefit from the deconstruction and redesign of Interstate-787 into a less intensive boulevard that allows for better multi-modal connections and re­ development opportunities. Additionally, the existing port-related truck traffic will need to be evaluated and potentially rerouted, in order to allow for the inclusion of additional non-industrial uses that would otherwise have difficulty co-existing with more intensive industrial uses. Another potential barrier that needs to be evaluated is the five combined sewer overflow outfalls located in the study area. The development scenarios outlined below build upon the Albany 2030 vision and set initial concepts for sustainable water­ front development that fully incorporate the economic, social, and environmental factors needed to create a vibrant mixed-use district that reconnects to the rest of the City. RELATIONSHIP TO ALBANY 2030 SYSTEMS 1. Community Form The goals of the Community Form System are to promote development of a balanced future land use pattern that supports realization of the Albany 2030 Vision Statement; promote development patterns that include walkable streets, compact, mixed use de­ velopment, public spaces, and context sensitivity; capitalize on diverse architectural and neighborhood-specific character to maintain and revitalize neighborhoods; and pre­ serve and restore existing buildings that are vacant or underutilized through adaptive reuse while allowing for new development and new architecture.

Economy The goals of the economy system are to increase employment opportunities at all ed­ ucation/skill levels, and raise local incomes; encourage investment and reinvestment throughout Albany that supports economic development and placemaking; and create economic resilience through diversity. Redevelopment of the South Waterfront District supports each of these goals by: • Attracting investment and reinvestment to an area with ample development oppor­ tunity, access to the regional transportation network, multi-modal access, and the amenity of the waterfront. • Reusing and reinvesting in existing building stock. • Incorporating retail and commercial opportunities to support local businesses and provide local employment. 3. Social The goals of the social system are to elevate the quality of Albany’s educational system to a high standard based on established targets; Improve community health through increased access to recreation opportunities, healthy food, and healthcare; improve and maintain public safety in all parts of the City; promote and enhance arts and culture in the City; and improve the social well-being of Albany citizens in need. Redevelopment of the South Waterfront District supports several of these goals by: • Improving community health by cleaning contaminated sites. • Providing new walking, biking, and other recreational opportunities at the waterfront, including pedestrian connections along the waterfront and to waterfront trails. • Providing opportunities for arts and cultural activities along the waterfront or within a newly created waterfront park. • Improving public safety by revitalizing blighted properties and enhancing street ac­ tivity. ---PAGE BREAK--- 71 4. Transportation The goals of the transportation system are to increase options to the private automobile to move people within and between Albany, the Capital Region, and beyond; provide for safe pedestrian and bicycle mobility throughout the City; increase transit options and transit use; improve vehicular connections to and within Albany to facilitate circulation and reduce congestion, while addressing impacts on the City fabric; Improve capacity and service at the Port of Albany; and maintain Albany Airport as a regional hub for air travel. Redevelopment of the South Waterfront District supports several of these goals by: • Improving pedestrian, bicycle, and transit connections to the waterfront and con­ necting to regional trails. • Improving access to and opportunities for water recreational uses, such as boating and fishing. • Improving vehicular circulation to and around the waterfront with improved signage, parking, street configurations, and street connections. • Creating mixed use, compact development patterns that reduce automobile depen­ dency and provide safe pedestrian and bicycle mobility. 5. Natural Resources The goals of the natural resources system are to preserve and protect the City’s water­ ways; protect and enhance the City’s urban forest, including nature preserves, parks, open space, street trees, and trees planted on private property; protect, enhance, re­ store, and expand the City’s natural habitat areas; maintain and improve the air quality; protect steep slopes and soils from development encroachment, erosion, and contami­ nation; and protect and enhance the City’s open space network. Redevelopment of the South Waterfront District supports several of these goals by: • Cleaning contaminated sites to reduce stormwater runoff and water table contami­ nation. • Providing opportunities to plant new trees and landscaping to enhance the urban forest. • Cleaning contaminated soils. • Providing opportunities for new parks, trails, and buffer zones to enhance the open space network. • Reducing stormwater runoff from impervious surfaces by planting new trees and landscape materials and creating new parks, ultimately reducing pervious surfaces.

Housing and Neighborhoods The goals of the housing and neighborhoods system are to provide a range of decent, affordable housing choices, densities, ownership opportunities, and price ranges to ac­ commodate the housing needs of existing and new residents; maintain distinct, safe, quality neighborhoods that preserve and enhance the natural beauty, historic/architec­ tural character, and cultural diversity of Albany; and provide access to basic neighbor­ hood services, including commercial centers, parks, schools, transit, police protection, libraries, community centers, etc., for all neighborhoods. Redevelopment of the South Waterfront District supports all of these goals by: • Providing opportunities for new high to medium density residential development. • Connecting existing neighborhoods to the waterfront and enhancing adjacent neighborhoods. • Providing new opportunities for neighborhood serving retail, employment, recre­ ation and transit. • Preserving the existing south end character and historic architecture while incorpo­ rating new, context sensitive architectural and urban design features. • Reducing blight and vacancy 7. Utilities and Infrastructure The goals of the utilities and infrastructure system are to promote energy conservation, efficiency, and use of renewable technologies as a mechanism for climate change miti­ gation; maintain the quality of the City’s wastewater management system, conserve wa­ ter, and protect the City’s drinking water supply; use stormwater management best prac­ tices to reduce impacts on water quality and mitigate costs of engineered stormwater systems; increase recycling and reduce the solid waste stream; and provide equitable communication opportunities for communities throughout the City Redevelopment of the South Waterfront District supports several of these goals by: • Providing opportunities for green building design and green infrastructure in new and renovated buildings to conserve energy, water, and reduce stormwater runoff. • Creating mixed use, compact development patterns that reduce vehicle miles trav­ elled and greenhouse gas emissions. • Reducing impervious cover by increasing parks and open space. • Creating opportunities for building reuse and recycling of building materials. ---PAGE BREAK--- 73 8. Institutions The goals of the institutions system are to foster relationships and create new partner­ ships among the different levels of government, surrounding municipalities, and institu­ tions that focus on cooperative planning for growth and development; work together to ensure that government and institutional facilities and projects promote mutual benefits; and to address the positive and negative impacts of government and institutional expan­ sion on the City’s tax base. Redevelopment of the South Waterfront District supports these goals by: • Attracting private investment to offset the fiscal impacts of institutional development. EFFECT ON ALBANY 2030 KEYS TO ACHIEVING THE VISION STATEMENT Redevelopment of the South Waterfront District directly incorporates the following strate­ gies related to the four keys to achieving the Albany 2030 Vision Statement:: 1. Improve Albany’s image and quality of life: Examples of strategies that target the needed changes through redevelopment of the North Warehouse District opportunity site: • Vacant and abandoned properties reuse (LU-3, ARCH-2) • Improve waterfront and downtown connections (UD-2) • Adaptively reuse historic and non-historic structures in brownfields remediation projects (ARCH-3) • Make Albany attractive for business development (INV-1) • Reinforce, enhance and promote Albany’s distinctive character and identity (INV-3) • Increase economic diversity (DIV-1) • Remove blighting influences (PS-1, NI-3) 2.

Establish Albany’s reputation as a Green Community: Examples of strategies that target the needed changes through redevelopment of the North Warehouse District opportunity site: • Promote and implement the Bicycle Master Plan (BIC-1) • Increase transit connectivity (TR-3) • Implement Long-Term Control Plan to mitigate water quality impacts of CSO’s (WW- 1, WS-1) • Provide multi-modal transportation choices to reduce vehicle miles traveled (AQ-1, EN-3) • Implement the initiatives of the Mayor’s Office of Energy and Sustainability Program (EN-1) • Create a green infrastructure system (SW-1) REDEVELOPMENT SCENARIOS AND RELATIONSHIP TO ALBANY 2030 Three conceptual scenarios for redeveloping the South Waterfront District opportunity sites were designed to provide a general sense of development and land use options that would implement the goals of the Brownfield Opportunity Areas Pre-Nomination Study and the Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan, while working with the site’s opportu­ nities (vacant properties, waterfront amenity, transit and trail access, vacant buildings) and constraints (physical barriers to waterfront access, multiple private owners, market conditions). The three redevelopment scenarios offer a range of intervention options, from lower-intensity to high-intensity redevelopment. Several nuanced scenario options are presented here in order to guide the BOA Step Two process while allowing for/reinforcing the flexibility necessary to effectively revitalize this District. These concepts portray general use plans and are designed to stimulate conversation about and assessment of revitalization plans for the District. ---PAGE BREAK--- 75 Several recommendation areas remain consistent across all scenarios. Streetscaping and improved roadway connectivity and traffic flow must be addressed. The creation of a waterfront promenade and connection to the existing Island Creek Park are neces­ sary for maximized revitalization. And, finally, the tourism/cultural resources of the U.S.S. Slater and Half Moon replica should be integrated into the overall area concept. These assets could potentially be relocated to a more central District location to act as the focal point of the District.” Several recommended improvements remain consistent across all scenarios. First, throughout the South Waterfront District, streetscaping improvements and circulation improvements are proposed to enhance the visual character, pedestrian experience, and pedestrian and transportation access through the site. Sidewalk improvements with street trees, lighting and other streetscape amenities are concentrated along all major and side streets, with a special emphasis on Broadway to provide safe and comfort­ able access to the waterfront trail, Corning Preserve, and the proposed pedestrian and bicycle trail on the replaced Livingston Avenue Bridge. Also, the creation of a waterfront promenade and connection to the existing Island Creek Park are proposed in all sce­ narios to increase recreational amenities and maximize revitalization. And finally, the tourism/cultural resources of the U.S.S. Slater and Half Moon replica are integrated into each scenario to provide a water-based museum focal point for the District, including potential relocation of the docks to a more central location and enhanced amenities to attract more visitors. While I-787 provides necessary north-south access to, from and around the City of Al­ bany, it is a formidable barrier. The opportunity exists and is now being evaluated to mitigate that impact through either boulevarding or decking over the roadway. While this option is only highlighted in Scenario Three, the mitigation of I-787 would be embraced for all concepts at this site. Scenario One – Waterfront Neighborhood Concept Overview Scenario One provides a mix of medium and high density residential throughout the site. This concept plan consists of one primary development zone that includes a mix of residential uses, a waterfront park, and waterfront trails. This concept would transform the district into a predominantly residential neighborhood, with limited retail frontage at key sites. The concept plan also includes significant landscape buffering to separate the potential residential uses from the I-787 and CSX rail lines.

This concept proposes redeveloping residential uses throughout the site and requires creating a more attractive streetscape along Broadway, as well as creating new at-grade street connec­ tions between downtown and the waterfront. New street connections are proposed to extend 4th Street, Bassett Street, Cherry Street, and Rensselaer Street to the waterfront and proposed promenade and will require designing the streets for safe crossing with the CSX tracks and implementing rail signalization. Residential development in this district will take advantage of access to I-787 and close proximity to downtown Albany, the historic South End neighborhood, and major em­ ployers. The waterfront park and promenade will provide an open space amenity for residents, shoppers, and visitors. In addition the newly created street connections from neighborhoods directly west of the South Waterfront site will provide existing residents with opportunities for recreation and waterfront access, and reduce the visual and physi­ cal barrier created by I-787. There is heavy truck traffic that occurs along Broadway between I-787 and the Port, directly south of the site. The Waterfront Neighborhood Concept proposes improving Broadway through new streetscape, pedestrian and bicycle improvements, and traffic calming measures. For example, the concept would benefit from timed traffic signaliza­ tion to allow trucks to slowly and safely pass through the residential neighborhood, while reducing congestion and noise. Scenario Two – Mixed-Use Waterfront Concept Overview Scenario Two provides a mix of high-density residential, neighborhood scale retail, and existing light industrial uses. Like Scenario One, this concept consists of one primary de­ velopment zone , but proposes higher-density residential concentrated on the south end of the site, while allowing existing industrial uses on the north side of the site to remain. This concept also includes a new waterfront park and waterfront promenade. In addition, Scenario Two includes significant landscape buffering to separate the residential uses from the I-787 and CSX rail lines and extends streets west of the site across I-787 and connecting with the waterfront. Conceptual Uses The Mixed-Use Waterfront concept includes the area between I-787 and the waterfront, which would consist of a mix of high density residential, ground floor retail, and existing industrial uses. The proposed residential uses are concentrated on the south end of the Introduction Previous City Brownfield Projects and History Brownfields in Albany 2030 Pre-Nomination Study Areas Potential Brownfields Identification Methodology Priority Brownfield Opportunity Area Sites Conclusions and Next Steps ---PAGE BREAK--- 78 Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan for the City of Albany Appendix A: Brownfield Opportunity Areas MAP 6B: SOUTH WATERFRONT - MIXED-USE WATERFRONT CONCEPT This map is for discussion purposes only and does not represent an actual endorsement by the City of Albany of the depicted redevelopment scenario for the entire area or any specific parcel. ---PAGE BREAK--- 79 site and will have views of the waterfront, as well as direct access to the proposed park and waterfront trail. This concept requires creating a more attractive streetscape along Broadway and creating new at-grade street connections between downtown and the waterfront. New street connections are proposed at grade across I-787 and the CSX rail lines. In this concept, the new street connections will extend Vine Street, 4th Av­ enue, Bassett Street, and Rensselaer Street and will require designing the streets for safe crossing with the CSX tracks by implementing rail signalization. This scenario also has excellent regional and local access and includes improvements to Broadway through new streetscape, pedestrian and bicycle improvements, traffic calming measures, and timed signalization for truck traffic. Scenario Three – Mixed-Use Boulevard Concept Overview Scenario Three represents the highest degree of intervention and proposes a Boulevard concept along I-787. The Boulevard would benefit from new retail frontage and mixed- use buildings and creates larger parcels that are appropriate for larger-scale specialty retail grocery store) with high-density residential above. Like Scenarios One and Two, this concept consists of one primary development zone, but creates larger parcels with the new configuration for Broadway. This concept also includes a new waterfront promenade and significant landscape buffering to separate the residential uses from the I-787 and CSX rail lines. Conceptual Uses The Mixed-Use Boulevard concept includes the area between I-787 and the waterfront and consists of a mix of large-scale mixed-use buildings (specialty retail on the ground flood, high density residential above) with higher density residential and neighborhood retail on the south end of the site. The proposed uses will have views of the waterfront and direct access to the pedestrian promenade proposed along the waterfront. This concept requires creating a more attractive streetscape along Broadway and creating new at-grade street connections between downtown and the waterfront. New street con­ nections are proposed at grade across I-787 and the CSX rail lines. In Scenario Three, the new street connections will extend 4th Avenue, Bassett Street, and Rensselaer Street and will require designing the streets for safe crossing with the CSX tracks by implement­ ing rail signalization. The Boulevard concept will redesign I-787 into a slower moving separated roadway and provide streetscape improvements to create a more attractive and safe environment. Like the previous scenarios, the Mixed-Use Boulevard Concept provides excellent ac­ cess for new residential development to I-787, downtown Albany, and new and existing waterfront amenities.

The NYS BOA Program can provide the necessary funding to help the City move one these visions forward. District specific next steps that could aid in redevelopment and be eligible for future BOA funding include: • An evaluation of the feasibility of developing a district energy system; • A study evaluating the potential for boulevarding I-787 to provide better connec­ tions between the South end Neighborhood, the District, and the Hudson River; • A market study to determine the potential for market-rate housing and commercial (re)development within the district; Introduction Previous City Brownfield Projects and History Brownfields in Albany 2030 Pre-Nomination Study Areas Potential Brownfields Identification Methodology Priority Brownfield Opportunity Area Sites Conclusions and Next Steps ---PAGE BREAK--- 82 Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan for the City of Albany Appendix A: Brownfield Opportunity Areas • An engineering study identifying existing infrastructure condition and capacity; • A tourism study to identify the potential for establishing a centralized destination within the district; • A study to identify the potential redevelopment impacts sea-level rise might have on infrastructure and building costs; • A mobility study evaluating connections between the district, downtown, and adja­ cent neighborhoods; and • A building inventory of existing condition and market potential. 7.0 Conclusions The City of Albany has had the unique opportunity to leverage numerous funding sources and planning projects together under the umbrella of Albany 2030. The benefit of such an approach is the ability to integrate concepts and projects that would otherwise have been looked at as independent, and ensures that multiple potential impacts and benefits are evaluated in a comprehensive manner. Cities are complex entities that require a ho­ listic approach to planning and management. The integration utilized in the development of this appendix highlights the benefits to this approach. The New York State Department of State’s (NYSDOS) Brownfield Opportunity Areas (BOA) Program was created to provide municipalities and community organizations with assistance to complete revitalization plans and implementation strategies for areas af­ fected by brownfield sites. The program specifically enables communities to put strate­ gies in place to return dormant sites and areas back into productive use and simulta­ neously restore environmental quality. The key caveat to this strategy, however, relies heavily upon the definition of productive use. This is of particular importance when the identified brownfield opportunity areas encompass significant acreage, abut key resi­ dential, commercial, and natural areas, and are located in high visibility locations. Partnering the development of a citywide brownfield assessment and selection of priority Brownfield Opportunity Areas with a community-based effort to develop the City’s first comprehensive plan offered the opportunity to align the community’s twenty year vision with the redevelopment of underutilized and potential brownfield sites. The Vision of Albany in 2030 states: Albany in 2030 has built on its history and diverse natural, cultural, institutional, and human resources to become a global model for sustainable revitalization and urban livability. The city promotes a balanced approach to economic opportunity, social equity, and environmental quality that is locally driven, encourages citizen involvement and investment, and benefits all residents. ---PAGE BREAK--- 83 As part of the City’s Pre-Nomination Study, the BOA Redevelopment Areas delineated, and the two priority study areas selected for redevelopment scenarios and concept de­ sign, are thoroughly consistent with the Albany 2030 vision and directly support its real­ ization. It is the hope of the City of Albany, the Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan Board, and the Community Advisory Committee on Sustainability that the underutilized sites identified can be transformed into dynamic and sustainable places that epitomize the future that the citizens of Albany have envisioned. This Appendix completes Step One as defined by the NYS DOS BOA Program: Step 1: Pre-Nomination Study The Pre-Nomination Study is intended for communities that are very uncertain about ex­ isting conditions and have minimal or no information about brownfields that are impact­ ing their community. The Pre-Nomination Study provides a preliminary description and analysis of the proposed BOA Redevelopment Areas. The NYS DOS BOA Program has two additional steps as outlined in the Albany 2030 Comprehensive Plan: • Step 2: The Nomination Study is the second step of the BOA process. This step entails an extensive inventory and evaluation of data and trends impacting the study area’s redevelopment potential, including market and economic analysis, identifica­ tion of redevelopment strategic sites, and formulation of strategies to move rede­ velopment forward within the framework of a Master Plan. Effective and inclusive community participation is a key part of the Step 2 planning process. • Step 3: The final step of the BOA program is to develop an Implementation Strategy, which identifies the specific actions that will be taken to implement the Master Plan recommendations for redevelopment of the strategic sites. Brownfield remediation and redevelopment has been identified as a strategy across multiple systems, in­ cluding Community Form, Economy, Housing and Neighborhoods, and Natural Re­ sources. Brownfield redevelopment is also indicated under several strategies as a leverage point for improving Albany’s image and quality of life. The City of Albany will apply for grant funding to prepare a Step Two: A Nomination Study for one or both of prioritized redevelopment areas (Study Area A and Study Area Ad­ ditionally, the City will continue development of its comprehensive citywide brownfields program under the coordination of the Albany Community Development Agency and the Department of Development and Planning.

However, in order to facilitate the realization of any of those concepts, it is nec­ essary to have a clear understanding of next steps. As one or both of the North Warehouse District and South Waterfront BOA’s proceed through Step Two of the NYSDOS BOA Program, key areas of analysis and study will be essential to foster an environment of positive redevelopment. Examples of next steps include: • Refining the vision, goals, and objectives for the district through additional public meetings and charrettes, particularly engaging neighborhood residents, business owners, and the development community in the desire and viability of identified scenarios. • Undertaking a more comprehensive inventory and analysis of brownfield, aban­ doned, and vacant sites, • Identifying specific environmental, social or economic barriers to redevelopment, • Identifying strategic sites for redevelopment , • Assessing the potential impacts of climate-related impacts, such as rise in the level of the Hudson River, and • Completing an economic and market trend analysis to further identify barriers and opportunities to redevelopment. ---PAGE BREAK--- ---PAGE BREAK---
