  • Participate in a community planning workshop led by Project for Public Spaces, an internationally renowned public space and park planning firm.
  • There was never a public planning process for Pier 6 as part of Brooklyn Bridge Park even though a public planning process was promised by the city and the state: Now is your chance to be heard!
  • Help create a plan to turn Pier 6 into a useful amenity for its surrounding neighbors and a welcoming entrance to Brooklyn Bridge Park. - How can it be a year round destination with a public purpose, public use and public feel?
  • What recreational uses would you like to see for South Brooklynites? 
  • What would you as local merchants like to see happen at this gateway?
