The plan has been developed through an extensive public outreach process which has engaged a diverse group of stakeholders including business owners, local fisherman, school groups and environmentalists. The park has a unique and colorful history, once the site of extensive brick making operations as well as a seaplane base. The western portion of the site is programmed for various activities oriented towards the Hudson River. The eastern section contains a nature preserve and interpretive areas centered on brick making in the Hudson Valley. The park most recently won a Planning Achievement Award from the Westchester Municipal Planning Federation.

The park is defined by magnificent views, groves of mature oak trees, and a popular playground. The play areas however were constructed over forty years ago and were in need of a major overhaul. Village officials, the committee, and a team from IQ met regularly to develop a new playground design inspired by nature. Materials, colors, and forms were selected to reinforce the theme. The park and playground areas were resdesigned to ensure accessibility for the handicapped. A splash pad, performance stage, and a fitness trail are other park amenities meant to engage the entire Irvington community.

Although the line was abandoned over forty years ago, many of the train stations remain and the once vacant right-of-ways are being reclaimed as . gteenways and bike trails. ~~) - . eres 44 ea ie | «Nei bt $ 2 The Town of Yorktown retained IQ to develop plans for a park with one Pe a such historic station structure as its focal point. The former station will oe ’ be programmed as a cafe intended to serve the many recreational bikers nate ty < anticipated along the North County Trails bikeway system. The restored leita iF Sn ak At wy) is ‘es building will be flanked by a new restroom facility and bicycle rental pavilion pe keclit Si Sa 8 & = Ls a which will recall the architectural heritage of Westchester County’s train stations. A terrace, beer garden, and picnic grove will provide an outdoor retreat and rest stop along the bikeway and draw travelers into the nearby shops and commercial district of the Hamlet of Yorktown Heights. Spatially defined by berms, flowering trees, and a crescent shaped mall, open lawns will become areas for a farmers’ market, art shows and outdoor fairs. Inlaid with fabricated scrolls of characters and symbols reflecting Yorktown’s history, period lighting fixtures, benches, and archway portals, will create gateways into this new village green.

A small sand bar located at the mouth of the Sing-Sing Kill will be restored as a tidal marsh.

AN Teme Ce i r= = ee — pre ion The Village of Croton-on-Hudson received an ISTEA grant from the New York State Department of Transportation for the development of a municipal trail. The trail is located within a paper street R.O.W. section which parallels the Croton Gorge, a scenic and heavily wooded area geologically created by the Croton River. The trail section is part of an overall contiguous Village-wide pedestrian network, linking neighborhoods with natural preserves, public open spaces, and the Hudson River waterfront. IQ developed the conceptual design and construction documentation for this first phase. Erosion control and stabilization were a major focus of the design. The trail retains a very natural, rustic feel and a “soft” bio-engineered approach was applied to some of the technical issues addressed. Local historic, land use and natural features were highlighted with interpretive signage. Native under story plantings were added to enhance wetland and disturbed areas while recycled wood chips were utilized from dying and dead hemlocks to help stabilize and define the trail.
