The Newtown Creek Alliance, Interval Projects and Evergreen Exchange are hosting a second visioning workshop for the “Gateway to Greenpoint” on Tuesday, March 5, from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at 520 Kingsland Ave. The meeting will give participants the opportunity to help plan the environmental development at the vacant lot at the corner of Greenpoint and Kingsland Avenues; RSVP here.
The 13,000 square-foot city-owned parcel is managed by the Dept. of Environmental Protection and was granted to the local community during the upgrades to the wastewater treatment plant.
The Gateway is part of the master plan to bring increased green space and pedestrian walkways to the furthest stretch of Greenpoint behind on and around Newtown Creek.
Working at my job years ago, I consulted on the Newtown Creek WWTP for a good time. Pleased to know this bleak space is being beautified.
GTFOH you cultural graverobber.
