8Executive Summary (RE) Power aspires to be the beacon of sustainable development. A partnership with the City of Yonkers, (RE) Power entails the redevelopment of the now derelict Glenwood Power Plant into avibrantsustainableentertainmentdistrictcoupledwithoffice,commercialandresidentialuses.A model of sustainable development and adaptive reuse, (RE) Power will become the regions dominant entertainment district attracting millions of visitors, creating thousands of new jobs, and millions of dollars of tax revenue for the City of Yonkers.
The overall project, including the $10,000,000 acquisition price, will be financed by acombination of Affordable Housing Grants, Green Grants and Private Equity. The City of Yonkers will make a two-fold contribution: (1) Payments in Lieu of Taxes and (2) Donating a parcel of land currently owned by The Yonkers Parks Department. The $4,500,000 in deferred taxes will be used to maintain a stretch of redeveloped wetlands adjacent to the site.Whilethisredevelopmentproposalishighlyspecifictothesite,itwillserveasareplicablemodel of sustainable reuse and redevelopment of formerly industrial waterfront sites. Such sites are prevalent in many US cities, particularly on the east coast, and this project proposes a novel model for how to reimagine these sites and their history toward new productive use in the future.

9Development Strategy
The development will be pursued in three distinct phases, encompassing both the adaptive reuse of an existing industrial building, the development of a new site, and the restoration of a natural habitat on the waterfront. Parcel A consists of The Glenwood Power Plant, which will be transformed into a sustainable re-industrialized development easily replicable for other properties. A Sustainable Industries
Incubator andRetailwill behoused in themainbuilding,withnewoffices in the adjacentancillary building. The existing roof will be redeveloped into a greenhouse, which can be used both for commercial agriculture and community garden. A boardwalk will be developed around the perimeter of the building, connecting the property to waterfront pedestrian access. ParcelBwillbedevelopedonaninfillsite,consistingofaLEEDPlatinumResidentialTower(market & affordable) and a 20,000 sq.ft. grocery store. It will be connected to the Power Plant by a Public Promenade. Parcel C will be developed as a natural wetland system along the Hudson River Estuary, accessible for education and recreation through a new system of piers.

Significant ChallengesWestchester County has long been known as a suburban home for old money in the New York metropolitan region. After Manhatta, the county is the second wealthiest in New York State, and the seventh wealthiest in the nation. Although much of the wealth in Westchester originates in New York City, it also has its own significant economic basewith thriving businessdistricts, retail malls, and industrial centers.The southwest corner of the county is anchored by the City of Yonkers. With a population of over 190,000, it is not only the largest city in Westchester County, but also the 4th largest city in New York State. The conditions in Yonkers differ considerably from those in the rest of the county. Rates of unemployment are nearly 30% higher in Yonkers and median family income is nearly 50% less than in greater Westchester County.The site of our project, Southwest Yonkers, is a particularly distressed area. Although official unemployment figuresare around 11%, it is estimated that a staggering 50% of the working-age population are not currently employed. A vast income differential exists between greater Westchester and this area, with 46% of households earning less than $25,000 and fully 29% of the population living below the poverty line. Much of the disparity in employment and income may be the result of low educational attainment in Southwest Yonkers. 37% of local residents between the ages of 18-24 do not have high school diplomas, a discouraging figure in a county that sends two-thirds of its young people to college (map 1).Southwest Yonkers is economically lethargic and socially strained. While the area presents a great number of challenges andsignificantriskstherearealsoanumberofpositiveforcesatwork in the area, which can be harnessed to support a successful sustainable real estate development project.

Unique Benefits
Proximity to New York CityBordering the northern New York City borough The Bronx, Yonkers lies just 13 miles from Midtown Manhattan. More significantly, theMetro-NorthRailroad serves four stations inYonkers along its Hudson line, with trip times ranging from 32 to 41 minutes to Grand Central Terminal (map 2). The ease of access to the social, economic, and intellectual capital of New York City creates immense potential for Southwest Yonkers. Commute times from any of the four Yonkers rail stops rival those by subway within the New York, making Yonkers a great candidate for dense transit-oriented development adjacent to the stations. This type of growth is beginning to spring up around the Downtown Yonkers station, but the other three stations, Ludlow, Glenwood, and Greystone are underutilized for their TOD potential. The Glenwood Station, which is adjacent to our project site, is particularly underutilized with relatively low densities of population and jobs within a half mile radius.Hudson RiverYonkers has no greater asset than the Hudson River. The Hudson River Valley stretches from Yonkers up to Albany, where the river shifts from a glacial valley to run the rest of its northern course through the Adirondack Mountains (map 3). Yonkers is located along the Hudson-Raritan Estuary, where the wide mouth of the river meets the salty waters of the Atlantic Ocean. The mix of fresh and salt water, which changes continually with the tides, creates a unique ecology that is home to a diverse variety of plants and animals.The Hudson also provides excellent opportunities for water-based recreation. Our site is located next to the 16-acre JFK Marina Park, one of the best points of access to the river in Westchester County. The park currently provides a boat launch and docking facility as well as fishing and crabbing access.Future improvements to the park will add a full service marina

and connections to the Riverwalk, a planned 51.5-mile leisure trail along the Hudson. The site will also become part of the 256 mile Hudson River Greenway Water Trail, which provides amenities and access for hand powered watercraft such as kayaks and canoes.HistoryMany historical sites dot the Westchester landscape. They tell the story of early settlements, Revolutionary War battles, and powerful dynasties. Historical sites in Yonkers span many centuries, highlighted by the Georgian high-style Philipse Manor Hall, built in stages from 1680 to 1755, and Glenview, designed in 1876 by the noted architect Charles W. Clinton.Yonkers is distinguished from other Westchester towns by its great industrial history. In the late nineteenth century, the Otis Elevator Company and Alexander Smith and Sons Carpet Company helped drive Yonkers thriving economy. Their early factories still stand today as reminders of the importance of industry in the development of the city and the region.Proactively Pursuing GrowthYonkers has assembled a talented and ambitious team to rebuild the city. Through a series of programs, The City of Yonkers Department of Planning & Development is actively promoting business and real estate development and has recently approved several large-scale, high-density projects. Several areas in Yonkers have been given special attention by the Yonkers Department of Planning & Development. Five Urban Renewal Areas (URAs) have been established to guide the target redevelopment of particularly troubled sections of the city (map 4). Two contiguous URAs in Southwest Yonkers illustrate an interesting juxtaposition of divergent conditions for renewal. The Ravine Avenue Urban Renewal Area is characterized primarily by low-density residential, which in many areas is blighted. The community has been actively Map 3.Hudson River valley with watershed and

engaged in planning for their neighborhood, and residents have expressed a desire for more affordable home ownership opportunities, the introduction of uses other than housing, and a connection to the future redevelopment of the waterfront.The formerly industrial waterfront that boarders the Ravine neighborhood is also slated for redevelopment as part of the Alexander Street Urban Renewal Area (map 5). Much of the 1 mile of shoreline that comprises the Alexander Street URA is vacant land, and what little industrial use now exists will be cleared as development plans move forward. The Master Plan for the area lays out a new roadway system to create development blocks that will be built out with a mix of residential, retail, commercial, and open spaces reflectinga vision of the Alexander Street waterfront area as a vibrant mixed-use district of residences and parks, knit together and shaped by landscaped streets and boulevards. The waterfront neighborhood is envisioned as an amenity for all Yonkers residents, with opportunities for recreation and commercial activities. Most importantly, the redevelopment will provide direct access to the Hudson River, which has historically been impeded by private ownership and industrial hazards.The City of Yonkers has also been designated as a Federal Empowerment Zone, which includes a wide variety of projects and initiatives aimed at achieving three goals: to expand economic opportunity, to enhance skills, incomes and access to jobs,andtobuildasustainablecommunity.Specificfundsfromthis program have been allocated to the redevelopment of the Alexander Street corridor. Yonkers downtown and waterfront have also been designated as a New York State Empire Zone. Under this state program, businesses located in these areas may qualify for property tax refunds, wage-based tax credits, state sales tax exemptions, reduced utility and telephone rates, employment training programs, and low interest loans. Waterfront development has recently been completed as a result of this Map 4.The four major Yonkers Urban Renewal
Areas (URA).

initiative and many more projects are anticipated over the next decade.At the local level, Yonkers has a unique loan program aimed not only at encouraging new development and increasing private investment in the city, but also at developing new employment opportunities. Loans can be used for the acquisition, construction, or rehabilitation of real property, leasehold improvements, machinery and equipment, and working capital. Another promising move was recently made by the Yonkers City Council, which reduced parking requirements in certain areas of the city, most notably within mile of train stations. The citys recognition of the growing demand for transit oriented development sets Yonkers apart from other towns along the Hudson line.The Challenges AheadThe City of Yonkers has abundant ambition and talent, but current economic and demographic realities present a significantchallengetoimplementation.TheCitysleadershiphas highlighted many perceived strengths that can stimulate economic growth. At the top of their list are the citys proximity to New York City and connectivity via regional transportation, as well as the Hudson riverfront and views of the Palisades. The Downtown area is seen by the city as the epicenter of initial growth, with existing institutions, shops and restaurants, historic architecture, and a walkable scale creating value.The Citys investment in economic development has resulted in both successes and failures. Waterfront redevelopment began in 2003 with Hudson Park, which included 266 units of market rate rentable apartments and 10,000 square feet of retail space (img. 1 & 2). The $53 million private investment by Collins Enterprises of Stamford, CT., was the single largest private development on the waterfront in the history of Yonkers. That project benefited from government investment in waterfrontinfrastructure, a park including a 9/11 Memorial, and the

rehabilitation of the oldest Victorian pier still in existence on the Hudson.Today,thepierhousesapopularfine-diningrestaurantand vacancy in the residential and commercial space is near zero.A 15-acre property on the north end of the Alexander Street URA has recently been the subject of less favorable news. Thepropertyisoneofthelargestbrownfieldsitesinthestateand cleanup costs have already topped $40 million (img. 5 &6). Homes for America had herculean plans for the site, which included 1,180 residential units and 5,000 sf of office on apodium 40,000 sf of retail, surrounded by four acres of publicly-accessible open space and a 250 slip marina (img. 3 & 4). The costs of preparing the site, compounded by the recent recession, proved too much for Homes for America and last year they defaulted on their $100 million loan, leaving the site with $20 million more in expected cleanup costs. The property, which sold for $22 million in 2004, was purchased a few months ago for $6 million.As part of their growth initiative, The City of Yonkers employed Urban Design Associates and Robert Charles Leeser & Co. to conduct an analysis and create a strategy for fostering the development of downtown Yonkers. The indisputable reality underlying their recommendations is that local market forces alonewillnotbesufficienttodriverevitalization.Desperate for economic development, the City of Yonkers has aggressively pursued the principals recommended by their advisors. Incentives are being liberally distributed and zoning has been relaxed for developers who can put a shovel in the Yonkers dirt. Enormous resources have been devoted to attracting a major institutional or cultural anchor that can be the first statgeof subsequent economicdevelopment. Webelieve that that our project can be that anchor.

Catalizing Economic Development in Downtown Yonkers1. Move Beyond Passive Economics Recruitment And
Branding Of Critical Importance
Yonkers needs to aggressively pursue even at cost the core elements of urban entertainment.
2. Create A Cultural Events Venue Or Institutional Driver Of DemandWithout a cultural or institutional downtown driver, Downtown Yonkers lacks a compelling reason for local and regional visitors to populate the streets. This is especially true of the water-front development.
3. Envision The Next Industrial Downtown Diverse Economic Base Of Yonkers Is The KeyDowntown Yonkers should pursue at least doubling its daytime private-sector employment Doing so will require successful execution of Phase 1, as detailed, above, as well as an aggressive outreach and recruitment effort coupled with a variety of incentive packages.

Site Selection
Between the MTA Metro-North Glenwood station and the Hudson River in Southwest Yonkers, lies the abandoned Glenwood Power Station of the formery operated New York Central & Hudson River Railroad. The Station was constructed between1904and1906andwasbuiltaspartoftheelectrificationof the rail lines spurred in part by dangerous conditions caused by steam engines and related smoke, and also by the need for a completely new and larger Grand Central Terminal. The coal-firedsteamturbinestationwentonline in1906andpoweredthe mainline between New York and Albany and most of the city of Yonkers. While unused since the 1960s, the power station and its twin smokestacks still stand as reminders of New York Citys and Yonkers industrial past.Although the Power Station property is included in the Alexander Street Master Plan, there is currently no plan for its preservation or reuse. Although there were reuse proposals as recently as 2005, these have not come to fruition, and in 2008 the Preservation League of New York State named the plant as one of the seven most endangered sites in the state. The former Glenwood Power Station site is a 4 acre property. On the property sits two buildings that occupy approximately 2 acres of the site. The Main Power Station building consists of two large open spaces under two distinct roof lines, and incoprotates the iconic smokestacks that climb to approximately 220 above the river. The ancillary buildings northern faade borders the citys JFK Mariana Park to the north. A structural integrity study conducted in the mid 2000s proved that the building was sound and could feasibly be preserved. While the main building is subdivided and consistsoftwolargeopenspaces,thereissufficientstructuretoincorporate adaptive reuse and new construction within.

The Glenwood Power Station Site in Southwest Yonkers can become a model for responsible economic, environmental and social developmentwhile benefitting the city of Yonkers,the county of Westchester and the greater New York region. Although theplanpresented is specific to the site conditions,the goals and implementation of the project can serve as a model to be applied to similar decaying industrial waterfront sites located throughout the United States.As the city debates over what to do with this complex, we have developed a plan that will save the historic structure, re-program its use, and connect two critical axes along the river while simultaneously reconnecting to a long ignored and cut-off community.

The reuse of the Power Stations main building presents an opportunity to reconnect the now disconnected site to the river, the community, and the Glenwood Train Station. The existinggroundfloor,locatedattheleveloftheriver,will house a
restaurant with river promenade access and a kayak rental facility
(fig. 1). At this ground level, a continuous boardwalk will be constructed around the perimeter to complete the now broken link between the proposed waterfront development to the south and the underutilized JFK Park to the north. This promenade will provide access both to the wetland rehabilitation site proposed to the immediate south and outdoor access from the programs within the Power Station. A new public ground floorwill be created at the levelof the Glenwood Station platform. The train station platform,
approximately 10 above grade, will be extended over the access
road at two locations to provide a direct connection into the
power station (fig. 2). One of the connections will access the south faade portico and will lead into a double height space alongthefaade,ensuringlightpenetrationdeepintothefloors.A boardwalk along the south faade will provide numerous opportunities for both interior and exterior views, seating and circulation. The other connection from the train platform into the complex takes place at the courtyard. A 40 wide walk will lead directly off the platform into the courtyard that will have
retail spaces opening into the public space (fig. 3). Small retail spaces will be located on this level as well as access to the restaurant and kayak launch spaces below. Thesecondlevelwillcontaintheofficesoftheeducationaland research institutions. Here the organizations will be able

to the Ravine Street Community across the railroad tracks to the east by taking advantage of a grade change that occurs at the site. The topographic change in elevation across the tracks allows this critical east-west connection to be made from the neighborhood into the third floor of the Power Station. Thisbridge will cross the tracks and connect directly into a parking structure built as part of Parcel B. The connection at this level will bring the community onto a level that will house additional exhibition space for the Hudson River Museum, retail and community spaces that can be used for educational purposes and community events. The highest level of the building, contained inside the existing roof structures, will be converted into a greenhouse

Thesecondpieceoftheproposalisaninfillsite,justeastof the Power Plant site along the edge of Trevor Park (reference Aquisition Plan for property aquirement plan). On this site, an 18 story, LEED Platinum residential tower with both market rate and affordable units will be constructed.The residential program consists of 320 total units, with 253 market rate and 67 affordable units. The affordable units willbepartiallyfinancedthroughtheLIHTCprogramfromtheFederal Government. The market rate units will be a mix of studio, 1, 2, and 3 bedroom units, and the affordable units will consist of studio, 1, and 2 bedroom units.
The buildings ground floor will address neighborhoodservices that do not currently exist in the community. A 20,000 SF grocery store, badly needed in the area will be housed, as well
as other amenities, including a laundromat and caf (fig. 6). (see market analysis on page 48).The structures podium will also support five floors ofparking for residents, employers and visitors to the Power Plant. Critical to this proposal is a public promenade that will connect the building and surrounding context directly into the power plant. The bride connection, at grade on the neighborhood side to the east, it will connect to the Power Station across the tracks at the third level. A more direct access to the train platforms below from this level will also be constructed. This
new connection provides a more direct and logical connection to
the Hudson River Museum and Trevor Park (fig. 7).

The last part of the proposal involves the construction of a natural wetland system along a stretch of the Hudson Estuary as a way to restore some of the natural habitat that has been lost to centuries of industrial development. In addition to playing an important part in the conservation and reclamation of the estuarys ecology, this wetland conservation area will provide a site for new educational, research, and recreation uses. While much concern will be devoted to restoring and preserving the natural ecology of the estuary, this habitat will be combined with strategic access points that will allow the public to experience the
rich ecology of the estuary, and simultaneously activate many
new programs around the site (fig. 8). Such a project is not only crucial for the maintenance and restoration of this important ecology, but also in reconsidering how we relate to the water in the post-industrial era.

Lying directly next to a rail line, this stretch of waterfront is currently unused. Current plans for this stretch include a connector road with public access, but no specific plans forecological conservation or restoration. Although a public connectionalongthissitewouldbebeneficial,thecurrentplansdo not take advantage of the potentials of waterfront restoration at this site, and also do not provide a good pedestrian experience. As an alternative, our plan will designate the the entire stretch as a protected waterfront, with certain portions rebuilt as wetlands to restore the Hudsons natural ecology and habitats. Public access will be shifted out to a series of piers on the water, so as not to interfere with the new habitat. This pedestrian path will link the boardwalks of the new developments on either side, and provide a richer pedestrian experience. Perpendicular platforms along this path will contain pavilions that can provide a space to rest and enjoy the water, and also accommodate many water-related programs. The undersides of the platforms will also benefit the ecology by providing a complex habitat
importantforfishandothermarineorganisms.On the land side, these platforms will selectively extend into the wetland, to provide monitoring and viewing access for research and educational purposes, and allow people to explore this fascinating ecology. Access to this habitat will provide an important amenity for future tenants of the (RE) Power facility, who can utilize the wetland and pavilions in developing their educational and research programs. On the river side, the platforms can be used for recreational uses such as the launching of non-motorized boats and kayaks, fishing spots, and swimming access. This access to
the water would benefit recreational organizations such asthe Yonkers Kayak club, which could use the platforms while renting commercial space in the (RE) Power facility. In this way, the wetland reclamation project would not only benefitthe environment but lead to a development that is both environmentallyandfinanciallysustainable.

(RE) Power aims to holistically approach sustainability with equal emphasis on social, economic, and environmental
sustainability. Although all aspects of the project should be considered sustainable in one way or another, a closer look at building performance is necessary. As a measure of (RE) Powers sustainability, the project aims to achieve Platinum Certification through the LEED Green Building Rating System. Platinum Certification, the highest rating achievable throughthe USGBCs four-tiered system, will be attained for the restored Power Station through LEED for Core and Shell and for the mixed-income residential tower through LEED for New Construction.
We have set five primary goals for the environmentallysustainable development and operation of the project: Minimize energy use Conserve city potable water and preserve the Hudson River Reducewastetolandfills
Maximize indoor and outdoor environmental quality Reduce the buildings life cycle costsWater100% of the rainwater falling on-site will be collected and reused. The power station site is designed primarily with hardscaping, which will direct rainwater into central cisterns in the basement. Rainwater and other greywater will be treated and recirculated through an efficient drip irrigation system (fig.
9). A xeriscaping strategy will be adopted to reduce irrigation demands for the limited planted vegetation. Native species have been selected not only for their low water use, but also to complement the natural ecology of the adjacent open spaces.
Sustainability Strategy
Figure 9.

Within the buildings, water use will be further reduced with theuseofno-flowandlow-flowplumbingfixturesandwater-
efficient appliances. Greywater and blackwater from thesesystems will be treated and used for on-site irrigation, primarily on the roof where hydroponic farming techniques efficientlyreuse water. River water, filtered through reverse osmosis, will play an important role as a source for agricultural irrigation
and in building systems (fig. 10). Through these measures the project will reduce municipal water use, with the aim of being a net-zero water consumer annually.Energy and AirIn lieu of central chillers, river water will serve zoned heat pumps which will provide locally-controlled heating and cooling. Local control will provide greater efficiency as well
asmorecomfortforresidents.TheefficiencyofHVACsystemsis further increased through designed cogeneration systems, which will capture heat typically lost in conventional systems. Thermal radiation will be used for much of the heating in the project, located either in concrete slabs or hanging ceiling panels. Solar water tubes, located in the greenhouse structure, will provide a renewable source of heat energy for the thermal system.Inthewinter,flowcanbereversedthroughsolarwatertubes to heat the greenhouses and protect crops.
Energy demand will be actively reduced through high efficiency lighting and Energy Star appliances, which willcompliment an array of passive strategies. Daylighting will be used as much as possible to naturally illuminate interiors during the day. In newly constructed towers, natural light is managed through high performance glazing and solar shading (fig. 11). Particular attention will be paid to the control of light and heat in the rooftop greenhouses. Double-wall rigid plastic will allow the greatest amount of solar energy to enter into the greenhouse while minimizing energy loss. Ventilation in the greenhouse and

throughout the project will be provided by passive strategies which exploit convective currents and Hudson River breezes.Renewable energy will be produced onsite with vertical axis wind turbines and photovoltaic panels located on the roofs
ofthenewlyconstructedbuildings.Withsignificantreductionsin energy demand due to the aforementioned strategies, the energy produced on-site should be sufficient to power theentire project, resulting in a net-zero energy building. The clean sourcesofpowerwillcontributesignificantlytoreductionsofgreen house gas emissions.Materials and Waste
Theretrofitandreuseofanabandonedbuildingminimizesnew materials use and construction-related carbon emissions. Construction materials, from structure to finishes, will beselected to maximize recycled content and minimize harmful chemicals. Priority will be given to local material sources and manufactures and, whenever possible, materials will be transported by barge, rather than by truck, to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Construction waste will be reduced by sorting, salvaging and recycling all unused construction materials. During operations, a rigorous recycling and waste reduction program will be instituted. A waste sorting and distribution facility will be provided for residents and tenants who will be contractually required to participate in onsite recycling programs. Visitors will find ample recycling bins and signage to promotewastereduction. Finally, food waste from residences and restaurants will be treated by organic anaerobic digestion, which produces useful fertilizer and biogas biproducts.

Financing Strategy
Whilesignificantbarriersstandinthewayofsustainableconstructionandaffordablehousingdevelopment, many programs exist to facilitate community oriented development. Grant funding will be garnered to support a large portion of low income housing, sustainable construction, brownfield remediation, and historic preservation. Private equity capitalwill also be investedalongside developer equity, and receive an annual compounded return of 12%. While the aforementioned programs and capital sources will help with the projects construction, the City of Yonkerswill play the largest role in ensuring financial feasibility bydonating a parcel of land and supporting a Payments In Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) program. In the PILOT program, over $4,500,000 of real estate taxes will be deferred annually and directed to upkeep parks, wetlands, and natural habitats adjacent to the site, ensuring that public community spacesadjacenttothesitewillcontinuetobenefitfromthedevelopmentindefinitely.

Market Analysis
Downtown Main Street
ManyWestchester towns such as Rye,NY contain heavily traffickedmain street districts,bustling with restaurants and retail opportunity. These areas are a draw for local residents and a haven for small business. With this redevelopment, boutique retail will be brought on site to simulate a walkable urban main street. While direct comparables are not available, this retail will be underwritten to perform like local non-anchor retail.

However, while REIS projections forecast an increase in average retail rent from $33/SF to $35/SF over two years, developer underwriting projects rent to remain constant. This is due to the introduction of new retail and time needed for place making in the development. Table 6. Lack of Grocery Options in Southwest Sub-market, Yonkers, NY
