Pearl Street Triangle Planning Session Tomorrow

March 21st, 2007

From the Dumbo Improvement District:

Re-imagining the Pearl Street Triangle…Can’t we do better than this???

Join the staff of the Dumbo Improvement District for a discussion and planning session to develop a community vision for the future of the Pearl Street Triangle. Currently a mish-mosh of patch work asphalt, failed Belgian blocks, and public parking; the area has a great potential to be revitalized into an enchanting public space as DUMBO’s town center. What would you like to see here? Come tell us.

When: Thursday, March 22, 5:30pm
Where: 111 Front Street, suite 258
To RSVP for the meeting please contact:
Tucker Reed, Executive Director, Dumbo Improvement District, 718.237.8700 or tucker@dumbonyc.org

    what about the poor farmers who would have to stand there all day under the bridge. i agree with having a farmers market but would lobby for the space at the end of Main, in the corner between the parks.

    I'd love to see a farmer's market or C.S.A. there once in awhile. I could put up with the noise long enough to buy some produce & flowers.

    YES IT WOULD BE WONDERFUL TO RELAX ON A PARK BENCH BELOW THE LOUDEST BRIDGE IN ALL OF NYC. WHAT? YOU DIDN'T HEAR ME?

    A big open square with benches and a few trees would be awesome, especially if it could house outdoor farmers and or flea markets from time to time.

    Is the current plan to make this green space? I wonder how that would work with the noise from the subway right above.
