Community members gathered at Columbus Park this weekend to rally for more green space in Downtown Brooklyn, calling for the site to be transformed from a parking lot into a public park.

Alongside Council Member Lincoln Restler and Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso, the community gathered to let their voices be heard.

Read more about the proposal and the growing movement behind it in the full article by the New York Post -

“Generation of judges … have just prioritized their own convenience, selfishly at the expense of what’s in the best interest of our community.”

Join Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso and Councilmember Lincoln Restler to rally support for giving Columbus Park back to the community!

For decades, judges in Brooklyn have parked their cars on public parkland in Downtown Brooklyn. The City has allocated $21 million to transform Columbus Park into a dynamic green space for the neighborhood, but the project faces challenges before it can proceed.

Parks are for people, not parking. Show your support to help to make this happen!
