Rendering of the promised 28 acre Bushwick Inlet Park.

A couple of weeks ago we reported a war was brewing at the former CitiStorage site, and while the flames have died down, the heat is on to reclaim our parkland. So Greenpointers got your skewers sharpened yet? If not, you better arm yourselves because it’s roasting time and you’re not going to want miss this.

Our good Friends of Bushwick Inlet Parkhave declared March…

  1. Cry me a river, Kim. If you really want to DO something about protecting this property from development why not use your resources of organization to bring together the 100,000+ residents of Greenpoint, Williamsburg and Bushwick to buy the property from the owner instead of kowtowing to the same corrupt politicians that got us here in the first place? Government is not the solution it’s the problem. Wake up.

    1. You are totally right, Elliot. Only problem with your idea is that the 100,000+ people you speak of already raised the funds for the park years ago through this little thing called city taxes. But hey, you want get the word out and start a Kickstarter campaign, go for it! Just don’t shoot the messenger please.

  2. The city charged us for a park that disappeared into someone’s pocket and our community has nothing to show for it. Now it will cost us twice as much. Nice going. Can the city give us our damn park already?

  4. It would be so sad if beautiful, wild Bushwick Inlet were cemented over and built up, as it’s lovely to have breathing room in such a crowded city often packed to max.

  5. Go to the rally, how cool will it be to tell your fiends I made this possible, I got off my ass and did something. 1 hour of your time and you can gloat for a life time. Invite 10 friends takes one second on email or FB. You can gloat if you only invite people send them this link https://www.bushwickinletpark.org
