The City Club of New York is set to present a critical panel discussion on March 12 concerning the climate resilience of the planned Brooklyn Marine Terminal. With plans advancing for the 122-acre site in the Red Hook/Columbia Street Waterfront District, concerns are rising about its vulnerability to climate change impacts like sea level rise and flooding, as well as the strain on local infrastructure. Experts from various fields will engage in discussions illustrating the disconnect between city planning processes and public trust, which has been eroding due to perceived oversights in safeguarding against environmental threats.
The upcoming panel discussion will scrutinize the plans for the Brooklyn Marine Terminal, particularly focusing on climate resilience against rising sea levels and climate change vulnerabilities.
Panelists will address critical issues surrounding the development's impact on the overburdened energy grid and sewage systems while debating the community's declining trust in city planning.
