CNY Development is not affiliated with Micron, Empire State Development, Gilbane, CenterState CEO, or any government agency. We cover the project independently — which means we say when timelines slip, when grant rounds close, and when information is uncertain. About this site →
Every guide is based on primary sources — ESD program documents, Gilbane project pages, Micron's community investment MOU, and the Final Environmental Impact Statement. When things change, we update. Each page carries a last-reviewed date and links directly to the original source. Our approach →
