Pedestrian Median Finally Complete at Vandy/Atlantic

This summer brought a few contributions from the Department of Transportation around Brooklyn. Best of all, the pedestrian median at the intersection of Vanderbilt and Atlantic avenues is finally complete. (If only the massive water main construction project over at Washington and Atlantic would wrap, too.) Also, DOT added benches to the corner of Vanderbilt Avenue and Fulton Street, Washington Avenue and Prospect Place, and Kingston Avenue. Here’s a fun video posted to celebrate the new benches at Washington Avenue. Any other new bench sites we’re missing? Update: a commenter spots new Benches on St. Marks and Vanderbilt, in front of the community garden.
