The draft report of the Village of South Nyack Economic Sustainability Initiative Feasibility Study is now available at SouthNyack.NY.gov. The report looks at various redevelopment options for the 33 acres of Interchange 10 land which the NYS Thruway will turn over to the village when the new Tappan Zee Bridge is completed. These include various combinations of multifamily housing, retail, hotel and medical offices.
