Help Plan the City's Waterfront

The Department of City Planning is currently preparing Vision 2020: The NYC Comprehensive Waterfront Plan, and they want your help. This plan will establish the city's long-range vision for the waterfront. The Brooklyn workshop is next week:

Monday, May 17

6:00 PM - 8:30 PM

Brooklyn Technical High School

Enter on Dekalb Ave. and S. Elliot Pl.

What to expect? According to City Planning:

We want to hear your suggestions for how to improve your waterfront. At the workshops, the Department will start with a short presentation of the findings off our assessment of resources of Brooklyn's waterfront -- what public access exists today, where there are industrial activities, the natural areas, etc. We'll then break into small groups to discuss particular segments of the Borough's waterfront, what we refer to as Reaches. In these small group discussions, we want to hear from you and hear your suggestions for how you envision improving the waterfront.

The Vision 2020 report will be submitted to the City Council and the public by the end of 2010.
