Borough President Antonio Reynoso hosted a session addressing community concerns over the Brooklyn Marine Terminal project, managed by NYCEDC. The project plans 7,700 new housing units, with a portion designated as affordable, alongside modernized facilities and improved public spaces. However, local leaders, including Reynoso, have expressed worries about the transparency of the planning process and the implications of residential development on the terminal's industrial use. Concerns revolve around the community's ability to engage with and influence the development's direction.
Reynoso and local officials oppose the proposed market-rate housing at the Brooklyn Marine Terminal, fearing it might undermine the industrial and maritime purpose of the site.
NYCEDC introduced its BMT Vision plan which includes modernizing facilities and building 7,700 new housing units, partially designated affordable, along with public spaces and transportation upgrades.
