The City of Rensselaer has prepared a Master Plan to evaluate a preferred development scenario for Kiliaen’s Landing, an approximately 75 acre site located on the Hudson River. The preferred alternative includes housing, recreational amenities, improved boat launch area, adaptive reuse of the Hilton Center for mixed use retail/residential/cultural arts center. A trail system will connect to the south to Delaet's landing and to the north to the proposed  RPI trails system.  A Generic Environmental Impact Statement will be prepared, to identify potential impacts and mitigation measures such as but not limited to land use,  transportation and infrastructure, utilities, water resources, and aesthetics. The alternatives to be evaluated in the GEIS process was driven by a combination of the results of a Market Study, the Inventory and Analysis,  and public input. The evaluation addressed issues such as specific uses, density and potential layouts.
