Construction of the Shirley Chisholm Recreation Center in Flatbush is progressing rapidly, set to open in fall 2024. The project emphasizes community integration and features a variety of resources.
Daphne Lasky stated, 'When you come back next year, what you'll see is the way that the rec center really knits together the park and the community,' highlighting the project’s community-focused vision.
The rec center, managed by an all-woman team, showcases a diverse set of experiences. Lasky expressed enjoyment in collaborating with empowered women in the construction industry.
The recreation center's construction aligns with honoring Shirley Chisholm's legacy, celebrating the first Black woman elected to Congress and a strong advocate for civil rights.
