New York City Open Industrial Uses Study: Draft
The City of New York aims to improve the condition of manufacturing zones citywide by making industrial areas greener, safer, stronger and more resilient to climate change. These widely distributed districts are home to hundreds of businesses across all sectors and are also the only locations where essential and sometimes unenclosed heavy industrial uses are permitted to operate. These unenclosed businesses, open industrial uses (OIUs), perform a critical, but often overlooked role in the City's economy. The City seeks to continue to support these businesses as they provide valuable and necessary functions, employment opportunities in each borough, and opportunity for high wages employment for a broad profile of New Yorkers.
