Relates to uses permitted at pier 76 within the Hudson river park
This bill updates the Hudson River Park Act to allow specific commercial and recreational uses at Pier 76, including offices, amusement rides, and floating restaurants. It permits office buildings at the pier to reach a height of 185 feet while requiring that more than half of the pier's area remain dedicated to public park spaces. Additionally, the legislation clarifies rules for the pier's reconstruction, allowing changes to its historic footprint as long as the new size matches the original and the majority of the space is used for public access.
