H3 is conducting a planning and design study that will result in a the redevelopment of a large parcel of publicly owned land in downtown Nyack, NY. The existing site, which includes an outdated cultural facility and excessive amount of surface parking, is a tear in the urban fabric of this vibrant and historic downtown. Working with HR&A, we are developing options based on outreach, market studies, 3d modeling studies and consultation with local elected officials. The redevelopment plan will include a state of the art cultural facility, public space, and appropriate amounts of residential and retail development that will serve to invigorate downtown life in the village and reconstitute missing portions of the physical city.
