The Brooklyn Marine Terminal is poised for a transformative revitalization to address New York City's pressing need for jobs and affordable housing. A task force comprising community members and local stakeholders has been actively involved, gathering input from over 4,200 residents through extensive public engagements. This initiative seeks to modernize the terminal into an all-electric port, bringing back jobs while preserving the unique maritime heritage of the Red Hook neighborhood. A vote on the project represents a critical moment for the city's future.
The opportunity to revitalize the Brooklyn Marine Terminal will create jobs and affordable housing while preserving the maritime character of the Red Hook neighborhood.
For decades, the Brooklyn Waterfront played a key role in our economy, but recent declines in industrial jobs have necessitated a significant revitalization effort.
Engagement with over 4,200 community members reveals a consistent need for job creation, housing development, and modernization of the port infrastructure.
The master plan aims to convert the terminal into a modern, sustainable port, emphasizing the importance of a city that works for its working-class residents.
