BFJ Planning has performed numerous environmental reviews under both the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the New York State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQR) on behalf of the City of Yonkers as well as for private sector clients on projects located within the City. BFJ’s work for the City has included a NEPA Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Ashburton Avenue Master Plan and Urban Renewal Plan, NEPA Environmental Assessments (EA) for the Yonkers Affordable Housing Project (generic EA and site specific EAs), a NEPA environmental review for the new Yonkers Ferry Station, a NEPA EA for the Saw Mill River Daylighting and Restoration Project at Larkin Plaza, and SEQR review services to the City of a private development application for the expansion of the South Westchester Executive Park and development of the Elizabeth Seton Pediatric Center.

In addition, BFJ, on behalf of the Yonkers-based not-for-profit Greyston Foundation, Inc. and Loewen Development, prepared a SEQR Full Environmental Assessment Form (EAF) and related attachments for the Warburton Riverview Workforce Housing Project, a mixeduse workforce condominium project located in Downtown Yonkers. The project received approval from the Yonkers Zoning Board of Appeals in late 2008. BFJ is also providing site planning and SEQR services on behalf of a private development group for the Point Street Landing project, a large-scale mixed-use development on a Brownfield site located on the Yonkers waterfront; this project is ongoing.
