The Village of Sag Harbor sought to expand waterfront access and reconnect its downtown, upland neighborhoods, and shoreline through a cohesive, community-driven vision. Funded by the New York State Department of State, the Local Waterfront Revitalization Plan integrates land use, ecology, and mobility strategies to guide long-term revitalization of this historic harbor community.ProjectSag Harbor Waterfront Plan and LWRP

MUD Workshop supported the development of the LWRP through a comprehensive analysis of Sag Harbor’s hydrology, ecology, public realm, and circulation systems. This work included mapping shoreline conditions, evaluating access constraints, and assessing opportunities to strengthen the relationship between the village core and its waterfront assets.
Existing Land Use Plan
A robust engagement process – featuring workshops with residents, business owners, and local organizations – surfaced priorities around public access, ecological restoration, and the future of key waterfront sites. A central focus of the plan was establishing continuous shoreline access, linking the beach, marina, new restaurant development, and downtown. The plan also addressed ongoing erosion, storm impacts, and sea-level rise, outlining strategies to protect vulnerable edges while enhancing public access.
