Brooklyn Bridge Park Development Corporation has just announced the winners of the Pier 1 food concessions. From the press release:
The four vendors will be located throughout the newly opened Pier 1 section of the park. Ditch Plains will be located in the gatehouse at the entrance to Pier 1, and will serve park goers a variety of sandwiches, hot dogs, French fries, snack foods, drinks, and desserts. Nearby in the entrance plaza, Pier 66 Maritime‘s seasonal wine bar will give visitors a chance to relax in front of park and waterfront views…Calexico Carne Asada, which has two popular food carts in SoHo as well as a Brooklyn restaurant, will launch their first food cart in the borough at Brooklyn Bridge Park. Calexico will locate on the northern edge of Pier 1’s Bridge View Lawn, serving tacos, quesadillas, and other Mexican-style fare. Rounding out the Pier 1 food concessions at the southern edge of the Harbor View Lawn will be Brooklyn-based Blue Marble Ice Cream, known for their famous organic ice cream flavors as well as other prepared foods.
We hacked out the map above with the approximate locations, but be warned it’s not an official map from the Park brass. What do you think of the choices?

yeah but there is only ONE scoop on that cone. so even at 4 dollars (plus tax!) it’s still a gigantic rip off.
*rob*
a cone at blue marble is $3.89, FYI. not sure if they charge differently at their carts.

have they opened the toilets yet?
are they pay toilets that only accept 10 dollar bills? complete with bidets?

20 dollars for 3 cones :-/ that’s just ridiculous. it’s actually sad that so many kids who will be at that park couldnt even dream to afford that. putting it in a public park like that is just plain cruel and totally elitist, but whatev, we all know who this park was really designed for even tho no one wants to say it. perhaps im being a grump about the issue, sorry…

JB, that’s what the damn east river is for.

on second thought, I don’t want ML to call me a complainer. I’m all for whatever. Just open it already!
Mister Softee shoulda tried. I’m a lot happier buying my kids cheap crap ice cream a couple times a week and still being able to send them to college.

UGH! and i bet you aren’t even just trying to be funny.
I’M FUNNY, DAMMIT!
Actually I’m not that funny, but I was cracking wise on the “posh” selections. And yes I know they’re not really posh-posh but for a public NYC park those guys are posh.
What’s the matter w/ dirty water Sabretts and Gino’s ices?
A couple of dogs and sodas at Ditch Plains will run about $20. 3 cones at Blue Marble (which is delish) that’s close to another $20.
Grabbing a bite to eat after your kid burns his skin off on the death orbs is an expensive proposition.
