Pier 42 Park Plans Unveiled | The Lo-Down : News from the Lower East Side

One of two master plans for a new park at Pier 42. Last night, members of Community Board 3 and local residents got their first look at master plan proposals for a large new park in the works at Pier 42. Two options outlined by Signe Nielsen of Mathews Nielsen, an architectural firm hired by the city, would transform the eight acre parcel into a multi-use expanse featuring grassy lounging areas, recreational sports facilities, a mini-eco-park and kids’ play areas. The city intends to build the new green space in phases. The Lower Manhattan Development Corp. has provided $16 million in funding out of $60 million the entire project is expected to cost. Last night, Nielsen emphasized that the dock and pilings on which a large abandoned shed sits is in “very poor condition” and will need to be completely rebuilt. She described two proposals one in which the entire deck is reconstructed and another in which it’s only partially rebuilt.
