Parking Restrictions This Week Due To Curb Work In Memorial Plaza

PLEASANTVILLE, NY — Work to replace curb and realign the island/median north of the gazebo in Memorial Plaza is expected to take five, and parking around the island/median will be intermittently restricted through Friday.

It's all part of the Manville Road Corridor Improvement Project. This work also includes:

• The removal of the right hand ‘slip lane’ exiting Memorial Plaza. While this area is proposed to be the future location of a civic space, interim improvements will be made at the conclusion of the Manville Road project to add plantings, trees and grass with parking also to remain. Total cost of the work is projected to be $600,000, which is supported by $450,000 of grant funding. This work would not need to be reconstructed for a full-scale civic space project in the future.

• Around the northern island in Memorial Plaza, angled parking will be placed on the west side of the median/island, and on the west wide of Memorial Plaza (in front of Starbucks and diner) replacing the existing parallel parking spaces. New landscaping will also be added to the median/island. This work is expected to begin in late May.
• Curb and sidewalk has been replaced in the south end of Memorial Plaza with the construction of a pedestrian bump-out, and planned placement of 13 angled parking spaces. This will produce a pedestrian walkway and new crosswalk connecting the Cooley Street parking lot to Memorial Plaza and the train station.
