Over thirty Roosevelt Island residents came out to meet the studio group and share their concerns. Some of the following issues and concerns are echoed from our October townhall meeting and our community survey, which illustrates the pressing concerns of Roosevelt Island residents. The issues and concerns are listed in no particular order. </div><br /><div>- F-train service inadequate</div><div>- Roosevelt Island roads & sidewalks in poor condition for disabled residents </div><div>- Struggling and depressed Main Street retail </div><div>- Island emergency evacuation </div><div>- Governance and accountability of RIOC </div><div>- MTA Subway and Red Bus disability access </div><div><br />The Access RI studio team will continue to compile issues and concerns of Roosevelt Island residents while we develop solutions for the most frequently occurring issues and problems. <em><strong>More to come!</strong></em></div><div><a

This open house is being held so the Roosevelt Island community can meet and talk with us in a small, casual setting. At the same time, we will give the community an opportunity to take surveys, give an oral history of their Roosevelt Island experience and illustrate their perceptions of the island on maps. There will be activities for children too. Refreshments will be served.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">When: Saturday, December 6, 2008 -- 10 am to 2 pm</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Where: Good Shepherd Community Center, 543 Main Street</span><br /><br />Stop by any time, and remember children are welcome!AccessRI Studiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04146278703468950207noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166441148646859201.post-30003650950853145022008-11-23T10:41:00.000-08:002008-11-23T10:58:09.942-08:00UPDATE: Future Tram ConstructionHere are some highlights from the minutes from the 11/10/2008 Transportation Committee meeting for Community Board 8 regarding the tram construction:<br /><br />- RIOC has awarded the tram construction contract to Poma.<br /><br />- The tram will be out of service from <span style="font-weight: bold;">June 22, 2009 to mid-December 2009.</span><br /><br />- The $3 million available from the budgeted $25 million will be used for the redesign of the existing "functional" tram stations.<br /><br />- Current plans call for minimal usage of cranes and lane closures along the 59th Street Bridge and alongside the tram station at 60th Street and Second Avenue. <br /><br />- There are concerns expressed over the closure of bike lanes in the area.<br /><br />- RIOC will pay for traffic agents to alleviate any traffic problems.<br /><br />- Possibility of night work for two weeks.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">- During the tram closure, RIOC will be running Red Buses during the morning rush hour to Queensboro Plaza.

We heard the voices of Roosevelt Island residents on its pressing transportation concerns. In the upcoming months, we will be reaching out again to the Roosevelt Island community to hear your concerns on transportation and other issues of access.<br /><br />We've worked hard to synthesize the input from every group and have written a report to share with the Roosevelt Island community.<br /><br />To view the full results from the forum, click the link below.<br /><a href="http://accessri.googlegroups.com/web/RI+Solutions+Write-up+FINAL.pdf?gda=rqOtl1EAAAD104z8Kwy8h4H6hKUJ3IJnczd0wiqNaUkbj7Gu2oPXx19Xm9-y996-_46vWYM2Pim-ikiGZpdtqKK9HMyE2LqbUwk_6Qi3BU8HCN0q6OYwM5VxXgp_nHWJXhfr7YhqVgA">Community Forum - Full Report</a>AccessRI Studiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04146278703468950207noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166441148646859201.post-14378979048939849652008-10-22T20:03:00.000-07:002008-10-22T20:04:30.866-07:00This is Access RI ...Greetings Roosevelt Island!<br /><br />We are AccessRI; an urban planning studio commissioned by New York State Senator Jose Serrano to conduct an accessibility study for Roosevelt Island. The goal of our studio is to identify and address the key access issues of the Roosevelt Island community in a community-based plan. The accessibility plan will address transportation on and off the island, but will also consider the community’s access to government, health, emergency services, retail and recreation.<br /><br />AccessRI, is a collaborative studio made up of ten (10) graduate students from the Department of Urban Affairs and Planning at Hunter College under the guidance of Professor Laxmi Ramasubramanian, M.Arch, MCP, PhD. Over the course of the 2008-2009 academic year, we will be compiling data and conducting a thorough investigation of the relevant issues on Roosevelt Island. Our end product will be a community based, comprehensive plan to be presented in the spring of 2009 to Senator Serrano and the Roosevelt Island community.<br /><br />In order for our effort to be truly comprehensive, we will require the guidance of the Roosevelt Island community. The urban planning program at Hunter College is rooted in the philosophy of advocacy and community based planning. In keeping with this tradition, we will be seeking your input through a series of Town-hall meetings, community focus groups and surveys. We would greatly appreciate your participation in these activities and welcome your input, questions, or concerns.
<br /><br />Please feel free to reach out to us at accessri.studio@gmail.com. We look forward to meeting you and discussing the future of Roosevelt Island.AccessRI Studiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04146278703468950207noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166441148646859201.post-85927681695569358452008-10-13T19:29:00.000-07:002008-10-13T19:32:38.558-07:00Roosevelt Island Townhall Meeting<span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">The Manhattan Borough President, Scott Stringer, is co-sponsoring a townhall meeting with New York State Senator Jose Serrano and the Access RI Studio to discuss current Roosevelt Island issues. <br /><br />What: Townhall Meeting<br />When: October 21, 2008 @ 7 PM<br />Where: The Church of the Good Shepard<br /> 546 Main Street, Roosevelt Island<br /></span></span>AccessRI Studiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04146278703468950207noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166441148646859201.post-18455423319079010152008-10-13T18:51:00.000-07:002008-10-13T18:52:06.591-07:00More on the Access StudyThis community-based, comprehensive plan seeks to improve access to employment, education, health care, food and other services of importance including but not limited to emergency services and public transportation.<br /><br />The study will produce long-term, innovative solutions, in addition to short-term, low hanging fruit solutions to address these issues.<br /><br />Roosevelt Island offers a simple way to delineate the primary study area, because it is an island with three main access points. However, as we continue our research and analysis, the study area may expand the scope of analysis to include access corridors or nodes in Manhattan and Queens.AccessRI Studiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04146278703468950207noreply@blogger.com0
