Downtown Visioning

Nassau County's downtowns are centers of commerce and excitement, near LIRR stations and good transportation, and are walkable communities. These are the places where we can expand our tax base, get people out of their cars, and create jobs for young people, and housing for seniors and the next generation.

Already three communities have vision plans for the revitalization of their downtowns that are currently being implemented (click for a link to more information):

Elmont Community Vision Plan

Village of Hempstead Vision Plan Downtown

City of Glen Cove Cedar Swamp Road Corridor Study

Four additional communities have visioning programs underway ( as of January 2010):

Village of Farmingdale Downtown Revitalization Plan

Village of Freeport North Main Street Corridor Study
Great Neck Peninsula Transportation Visioning Study
New Cassel Industrial Area Visioning Study
