National Park Service Denver Service Center. 1986. Development Concept Plan/Environmental Assessment, Jacob Riis/Fort Tilden, Draft, Breezy Point District, Gateway National Recreation Area New York. US Department of the Interior National Park Service Denver Service Center. Denver, CO

For almost a decade, the NPS has operated the former municipal facility at Jacob Riis much in the same pattern as it has always been operated. Portions of the facility are aging, use patterns are changing, and the Fort Tilden addition has never been totally integrated in terms of use. This Development Concept Plan (DCP) refines and updates management, park development, and visitor use objectives established in the 1979 General Management Plan for Gateway National Recreation Area (NRA.) The more comprehensive proposal made in this DCP will set the stage for site-specific design and management actions and plan implementation. Planning/design guidelines prepared at this stage can be used to ensure continuity, to monitor future implementation, and to conduct post-construction evaluation. Proposals in this document are limited to those changes that could conceivably be implemented within the next 5-10 years.
