Book Description
Zoning maps are updated after the City Planning Commission and the City Council have approved applications for zoning changes. The Web version of the Zoning Resolution of the City of New York includes all zoning map amendments approved by the City Council up to [date varies]. The Zoning Resolution is divided into two parts: zoning text and a set of 126 zoning maps. The maps, available from this page, show the locations of the zoning districts. See Zoning Text to access New York City's zoning text. City Planning base maps of New York City are made up of 35 sections, each identified by a number from 1 to 35. Each of these 35 maps has been further divided into from one to four quarters, each identified by a letter: a, b, c or d. In total, there are 126 zoning maps. Each zoning map covers territory of approximately 8,000 feet (north/south) by 12,500 feet (east/west). To view a particular zoning map either: Select the particular zoning map in the Zoning Map Table below; or Select a zoning map geographically from the index maps for the following boroughs: Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island. More Information on Zoning Maps: The Zoning Map Table above lists all 126 zoning maps together with the effective date of the most recent zoning change for each map. Proposed or recently adopted changes to a zoning map will often be posted to the web before the printed paper map becomes available. In order to provide current information, a proposed or adopted zoning change may be shown as a "sketch" map prior to being included on the zoning map. These sketch maps are linked to the zoning map posted on the web. Zoning maps with linked sketch maps for ADOPTED zoning changes are identified in the table with a red asterisk (*). Adopted changes are in effect as of the date listed to the left of the asterisk, and also shown on the linked sketch map. A red rectangle is used to indicate the affected area for an adopted change. Zoning maps with linked sketch maps for PROPOSED zoning changes are identified in the table with a blue asterisk (*). Proposed changes are NOT currently in effect. The sketch map is included to show how the proposed change would alter the zoning map, if adopted. A blue rectangle is used to indicate the affected area for a proposed change. Selecting within the red or blue rectangle on the main zoning map will display the relevant "sketch" map. In cases where there are overlapping sketch maps, dashed lines are used to distinguish between sketch maps. The red rectangles displayed in the map key located to the lower right of each zoning map can be used to navigate to adjoining maps.

Book Description
Surveying the two centuries that preceded Jim Crow’s demise, Race and Education in New Orleans traces the course of the city’s education system from the colonial period to the start of school desegregation in 1960. This timely historical analysis reveals that public schools in New Orleans both suffered from and maintained the racial stratification that characterized urban areas for much of the twentieth century. Walter C. Stern begins his account with the mid-eighteenth-century kidnapping and enslavement of Marie Justine Sirnir, who eventually secured her freedom and played a major role in the development of free black education in the Crescent City. As Sirnir’s story and legacy illustrate, schools such as the one she envisioned were central to the black antebellum understanding of race, citizenship, and urban development. Black communities fought tirelessly to gain better access to education, which gave rise to new strategies by white civilians and officials who worked to maintain and strengthen the racial status quo, even as they conceded to demands from the black community for expanded educational opportunities. The friction between black and white New Orleanians continued throughout the nineteenth century and well into the twentieth, when conflicts over land and resources sharply intensified. Stern argues that the post-Reconstruction reorganization of the city into distinct black and white enclaves marked a new phase in the evolution of racial disparity: segregated schools gave rise to segregated communities, which in turn created structural inequality in housing that impeded desegregation’s capacity to promote racial justice. By taking a long view of the interplay between education, race, and urban change, Stern underscores the fluidity of race as a social construct and the extent to which the Jim Crow system evolved through a dynamic though often improvisational process. A vital and accessible history, Race and Education in New Orleans provides a comprehensive look at the ways the New Orleans school system shaped the city’s racial and urban landscapes.
