The Future of Downtown Brooklyn’s Fox Square


Here’s an idea of what the 6,000-square-foot public plaza will look like at Fox Square, the public plaza at the intersection of Flatbush Avenue and Fulton Street. CB2′s Transportation Committee approved the above design and the full board is scheduled to vote on it tomorrow. The design includes three trees near the center of the square, plantings along Flatbush Avenue, moveable tables and chairs, paving, lighting and one drinking fountain. Despite these changes, there are no plans to change the grade of the street. The Downtown Brooklyn Partnership will maintain the space. DOT should be installing tables and chairs on an interim basis any day now, the permanent plaza will come after all the design elements are finalized. Community Board 2 already approved the installation of the plaza itself, proposed first in January.
