One Brooklyn Bridge Park and Site

A meeting dealing with the (possibly stalled) Brooklyn Bridge Park that was previously postponed has been rescheduled. The meeting is being held to get input on programming plans for the park, including whether there should be user fees and charges. The press release says in part:

In addition to a general statement of goals and major recommendations, the final Strategic Plan for Programming in Brooklyn Bridge Park will include suggestions for potential partnership arrangements and strategies, recommendations for interim uses during park construction, general recommendations for types of major facilities, infrastructure recommendations, a timeline for implementation of programs and construction of facilities and venues, and a financial plan for self-sustaining programming which carefully balances public and private uses.

The meeting will be held on Monday, November 26, from 6:30-9:00 pm at Congregation Mt Sinai, 250 Cadman Plaza West, in Brooklyn Heights. It is sponsored by the Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy and the Brooklyn Bridge Park Development Corp.
