Promoting Tourism in Cortlandt

The North County News reports that the town of Cortlandt is moving forward with a proposed Waterfront Tourism Enhancement Plan. The plan calls for rezoning parts of the waterfront to encourage the development of marinas, restaurants, and other tourism-related businesses. The focus of the proposal is a 300 acre property in the Annsville section. The plan calls for a mixed-use approach, with residential units to be built above commercial spaces. Part of the goal, according to the article, is to link the area to the Hudson River Valley Greenway Trail system, the Hudson Highlands Gateway Park, and the Steamboat Riverfront Park.
