Huntington Station Downtown Revitalization Initiative
BJH was the project manager and prime consultant for the State of New York, managing a multi-disciplinary team that developed a Downtown Revitalization Strategic Action Plan for Huntington Station within the Town of Huntington, Suffolk County, Long Island. The Downtown Revitalization Initiative provided Huntington Station with $10 million total in downtown revitalization funds. BJH led a team in coordinating a committee of local stakeholders, executing public engagement events, studying existing conditions, and identifying projects to help bring about the revitalization of the downtown. Once the community identified potential projects, BJH and its team prepared an implementation plan that identified the cost of the project, regulatory processes, and partners to implement each of the projects.
Projects included a complete streets revamp of Huntington Station’s main corridor; a new pedestrian plaza; a commercial attraction program that would provide grants to downtown businesses for renovations; a comprehensive streetscape improvement plan; mixed-use projects including a 70-unit housing development and a film/television studio The projects will be implemented between 2024 and 2029.
