‘Inwood NYC will only exacerbate the existing displacement of Northern Manhattan’s working-class immigrant community. ‘
‘Creo firmemente que es crucial que les demos prioridad a los espacios abiertos a la ribera del río y a estructuras relacionadas a la vez que creamos vivienda asequible.’
‘Inwood NYC solo exacerbará el actual desplazamiento de la comunidad inmigrante trabajadora del Alto Manhattan. ‘
‘I strongly believe that it’s critical that we prioritize waterfront open space and related infrastructure while creating affordable housing.’
As Manhattan Community Board 12 considers the city’s proposed rezoning, a number of other neighborhood groups are pushing for an alternative plan.
Technically, the proposed rezoning of this northern Manhattan neighborhood is about redrawing lines on a map. Here’s what that map looks like, today, on the ground.
The administration says it’s providing additional services to support small businesses, but Inwood businesses argue the current rezoning proposal would trigger displacement.
The proposed Inwood rezoning has officially entered the seven-month public review process known as the Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP) through which a rezoning is approved or disapproved. Read our free newsletter about the proposal and the review process, in English and Spanish.
Inwood es el quinto vecindario a rezonificar que pasa al ULURP bajo el plan de vivienda asequible de la administración De Blasio. La propuesta surgió de la visión del concejal local Ydanis Rodríguez de desarrollar el lado este de la Décima Avenida en Inwood y crear un centro de tecnología y servicios de salud.
