Property Background

The property contained a 3 story 19th century brick building with a footprint of 32’ x 25’ (1,650 SF) until it was demolished due to structural integrity issues in 2014.

The building had “Grandfather” status based on its location on the property and its height.

Current zoning allows buildings of 2.5 stories but a case could potentially be made for a special permit to allow a 3 story building as current ownership was planning to incorporate the historic building into a new development as an architectural anchor.

Concept renderings are included in the proceeding slides. Architect/zoning consultant should be consulted to confirm feasibility.

Kingston, NYMarket Overview

Market Overview

Kingston, New York has a long tradition as a hub for culture, commerce and tourism.

Once New York’s state capital, Kingston evolved into what is now a vibrant destination that

attracts visitors from all corners of the Tri-State Region and beyond. It is a gateway to the

Catskills, bordered on the west by the majestic Catskill and Shawangunk mountain ranges,

a welcoming port town with the prodigious Hudson River to the east, and ultimately an

idyllic intersection of natural beauty, history, the arts and American colonial chic.

Kingston’s distinct neighborhoods offer both residents and visitors a diversity of choices,

with recent years bringing still-increasing notability as a vibrant center for the arts, music

and dining in addition to the established reputation for outdoor recreation and sweeping

vistas. The city has two lively centers of activity, Kingston Riverport and the Stockade

District. The Downtown Riverport district is a charming setting along Kingston Harbor,

which given its unique depth, provides valuable access to the Hudson River. As such,

seasonal boaters fill the many marinas situated along the shoreline, while Hudson River

sightseeing cruises dock during the day and overnight along the pier head. Such cruises

bring easygoing tourists to dine at local restaurants and browse the many shops

throughout town.

DISTINCT NEIGHBORHOODS In the uptown Stockade District, Revolutionary-era stone

buildings and national historic landmarks are nestled alongside an ever-growing array of

contemporary restaurants, galleries, music venues and boutiques. The Farmers Market

bustles with shoppers who come for the fine selection of seasonal Hudson Valley-grown

foods. Together, these two districts render Kingston’s distinct and charming atmosphere.

OUTDOOR RECREATION: Outdoor enthusiasts enjoy Kingston’s bike paths, historic

walking tours and nearby Catskill Mountain hiking trails. Those more partial to spending

the day on the water have equal the variety of options, with Hudson River cruises, fishing,

kayak/canoe rentals and sailboat charters available. Ample docking facilities also exist for

those traveling to and from Kingston by boat.10

11

ARTS & MUSIC: Kingston plays host to many popular

annual events, such as the O+ Festival; the Irish, Greek, and

Italian festivals; the Artists’ Soapbox Derby; Wall Street Jazz

Festival; Kayak Festival and Sinterklass. Art-lovers gallery-

hop on First Saturdays and, during warmer months, the

Night Market transforms Rondout into a delightful

European-inspired shopping mecca.

DINING: Dining choices range from sophisticated to home-

style cooking all year long, with many of Kingston’s finest

chefs (several trained at the nearby Culinary Institute) and

restaurants featured during Hudson Valley Restaurant Week.

Plentiful restaurants at various price points and suiting any

palette can be found in Kingston.

The focus on quality, presentation and sustainability is a common

theme among many of the well-known foodie destinations such as

Elephant, Mariner’s Harbor, Ship to Shore, Savona’s, Anchor, Le

Canard-Enchaine, Keegan Ales and Stockade Tavern – all of which

cater to the more particular tastes of the growing New York City

transplant population.

THE KINGSTON RIVERPORT is the heart of Kingston’s waterfront, a

community of residents and weekenders largely from New York City.

This neighborhood is a long-time choice destination for transplants

and visitors from Brooklyn, home to a solid foundation of

established restaurants, trendy small businesses and historical

museums all enjoying the bucolic setting of what’s known to be the

most charming and charismatic section of Kingston.

RESIDENTIAL: Situated on a grand hill, the Downtown Business District is said to have a similar feel to San Francisco. Largely built by lumber tycoons in the 1800s, the area’s “business district” name belies its majority makeup of Victorian-style homes.

RESTAURANTS & RETAIL: Broadway is Kingston Riverport’s central retail corridor, catering to both residents and visitors with antique, art, clothing and spirit shops. Dining is largely inspired by the City’s “old time” charm and rich agricultural history, yet manages to satisfy every palette. There are a number of seafood, Italian and Mexican restaurants along with coffeehouses and Irish pubs. The Hudson Valley Mall is the region’s largest retail center. It’s location along Route 199 –the thoroughfare connecting Kingston and Rhinebeck via the Kingston-Rhinebeck Bridge – makes it both convenient and key to the area’s retail market. Anchor tenants include several national “big-box” credit tenants such as Target, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Best Buy, Macy’s, JC Penny and Regal Cinemas – the only movie theater in Kingston. In addition to the Hudson Valley Mall is Woodbury Commons, a sprawling outlet mall that attracts shoppers –including busloads of tourists – from New York City and beyond. This shopping hub is a scenic 50-minute drive south of Kingston on the New York Thruway (I-87).

CULTURE & AMENITIES: The Hudson River Maritime Museum and Trolley Museum of New York sit at the base of Kingston Riverport. The Maritime Museum is New York State’s only institution that significantly preserves and showcases the maritime history of the Hudson River. Special events are held year-round and boat rides are offered to the historic Rondout Lighthouse (now celebrating its 100th anniversary). The Maritime Museum also recently purchased an adjacent land parcel and plans to open a boat-building school on the waterfront. The Trolley Museum of New York opened its doors in1955,and in addition to offering exhibits and educational programs, also operates a 2-mile trolley line. Initiating at the museum, the trolley runs along Rondout Creek and terminates at Kingston Point, an area replete with lush parks, boat launches and a spectacular riverfront beach looking onto the Hudson River. In contrast to Kingston Point Park, T.R. Gallo West Strand Park sits at the foot of Broadway in the heart of Rondout's business district. The central location is prime and convenient, setting the stage for community block parties, festivals and concerts with Rondout Creek's natural beauty serving as a dramatic backdrop.
