Battery Park City and the Authority are not just about the buildings – it`s about the character of the community that has developed over time. Public space has had a new renaissance in New York City, but here in Battery Park City is where it started. Established in 1968, the Battery Park City Authority was charged with developing and maintaining a well-balanced community on the Lower West Side of Manhattan, in place of where deteriorating piers once stood in the Hudson River. Battery Park City has achieved worldwide acclaim as a model for community renewal. Through a public/private partnership between the Battery Park City Authority and private developers, this planned community has become a blueprint for successful urban development.
