3 INLET ISLAND COMMITTEE MEMBERS INTRODUCTION Tracy Farrell, Chairperson John Beach, BPW/Planning Board Susan Blumenthal, Common Council Rick Manning, Coordinator, Cayuga Waterfront Trail Initiative Karen LoParco, Bicycle Pedestrian Advisory Council Margaret Hobbie, Parks Commission Sue Kittel, Ithaca Urban Renewal Agency JoAnn Cornish, City Planning Department Leslie Chatterton, City Planning Department Hernando Gil, Department of Public Works CONSULTANTS and Planners 1345 Mecklenburg Road The Rivers Studio 6311 Lakewood Hollow - Suite A Austin, Texas Novelli Engineering 203 North Aurora Street T.G. Miller P.C. Engineers and Surveyors 203 North Aurora Street and Planners 2003 The Master Plan for the is the product of ideas and input solicited over the course of many years from a diverse contingent of interest groups including residents, business people, elected officials, city staff and professional consultants. The idea for a promenade originated with the vision for Inlet Island as a densely developed, vibrant waterfront area comprising a mix of restaurants and specialty retail shops on the ground level, and office space and residential units on the upper levels. This vision began with the preparation in 1992 of the Report of the Inlet Island Land Use Committee, a work amplified in the 1998 Inlet Island Urban Design Plan. One of the most exciting aspects of the anticipated development continues to be the promenade. The Committee was appointed by Mayor Alan J. Cohen in the fall of 2001 and charged with addressing the regulatory, technical and design issues necessary to make the promenade a reality. Working with the consultant firm of Trowbridge and Wolf Landscape Architects and Planners, the Committee began with a study of waterfront projects from across the country. The master plan draws on these examples as well as on the creativity and commitment of local community members. It provides specific design guidelines and recommendations to direct both public and private investment in the promenade s eventual construction. Safe and convenient waterfront access for a variety of transportation modes is key to the Island s successful development and long term economic viability. While the design guidelines focus on pedestrian uses, the plan links the promenade to a complex urban network of multi-modal trails such as the New York State Parks Black Diamond Trail and the City s Cayuga Waterfront Trail. Related improvements, including curbing and sidewalks along Old Taughannock Boulevard, increased vehicular parking and the addition of bike racks, will enhance the experience of those arriving to the Island. All of these improvements will make the Island more accessible by foot, bicycle, bus and car. The creation of a destination with a visual identity drawn from Inlet Island s rich history was a tightly held objective of the plan. Intriguing physical remnants on the Island include portions of the original Erie Canal harbor wall at Lookout Point and the fanciful Brindley Park water fountain, referencing both the industrial and recreational value of the 19 th century waterfront. The master plan combines these historical features with contemporary elements that will support the promenade s viability and versatility long into the future. The promenade is the centerpiece of Inlet Island s development. The impending shift from the design phase to construction moves us closer to realizing the vision of an urban community, alive with residents, diners, shoppers and visitors, brought together by the desire and the enhanced ability to enjoy our community s spectacular waterfront.

Portion of New York State drawings of the Barge Canal (ca. 1916) The historic map on the left shows a portion of the original plan used for the construction of the Cayuga Harbor, ca The Flood Control Channel was constructed later and is sketched on the historic plan for reference. The above photograph clearly shows an aerial view of the Cayuga Harbor ca. 1930s. It is recommended that the remnant wall of the Cayuga Harbor at the northern end of Inlet Island be maintained and interpreted as Ithaca s link to the Barge Canal system.

10 DESIGN GUIDELINES FOR PROMENADE: Pave the public promenade between plazas with scored concrete. Pave the 15' private building setback and the tree planting strip between tree grates continuously with Pine Hall brick. Pave the plazas with brick. Use of State Street brick is encouraged. Install brick in a herringbone pattern for maximum interlocking stability. Install tree grates in the tree planting strip. Place lights on the public promenade approximately 80' on-center. Ensure that adequate, compatible lighting is provided under Rt. 89 bridge Install benches in pairs, approximately 40' apart along the public promenade. Place interactive heritage markers at the back edges of the plazas. F l o o d C o n t r o l DESIGN GUIDELINES FOR 15' BUILDING SETBACK/ PRIVATE ZONE: Use Pine Hall brick set in a herringbone pattern for all paved areas. Use pole and building-mounted lights that are compatible with those selected by the City for the public promenade. Do not use pressure treated lumber to construct furnishings. Outdoor cafes, eating areas and seating are encouraged. Public access between promenade and the 15' setback zone is encouraged. Landscape areas are allowed along the front of buildings for a width of up to 8'. Canopies and awnings are permissible. No porches or decks are allowed.

Install a vertical element in the plaza as a focal point for the promenade, and install amenities, such as chess tables and benches. Install a sculptural bench at the end of Lookout Point. Establish lawn on Lookout Point to preserve the view toward the water. Consider establishing a boat display, such as a Canal Barge or an historic boat display at the east edge of Lookout Point.
