The Brooklyn Marine Terminal is set for a major redevelopment aimed at creating a new pedestrian-oriented neighborhood featuring 8,000 housing units. Preliminary proposals include enhancing transportation options such as bus upgrades, ferry access, and better bike lanes to accommodate the anticipated influx of residents. City officials emphasize the need for significant planning to handle the transportation challenges that current residents face, especially due to limited subway access. The plan hints at neighborhood busways and shuttle services to local subway stations, aiming to improve overall connectivity and infrastructure in the area.
The transformation of the Brooklyn Marine Terminal into a world-class, modern maritime port and vibrant mixed-use community is a generational moment for New York City.
Locals and experts agree that the city must think big to manage the transportation needs of the influx of newcomers.
