 | | The Hudson Yards rezoning plan for Manhattan's West Side has officially begun the public review process, and the draft of the environmental impact study has been completed. |
 | | In addition, the review also covers the creation of a Special Hudson Yards District that allows gradually increasing density going west from Ninth Avenue, design controls, floor area bonuses to encourage affordable housing and the relocation of municipal facilities beneath the new parkland. |
 | | And, in the next 20 years it will result in $13.7 billion in private investment, $2.2 billion in new annual revenue for the city and the state, 110,000 new jobs in Hudson Yards, 92,000 jobs in the rest of the city and 80, 000 construction jobs from private development. |
