Dock Street Plans (Marina and All) Go 3D
This photo of a model that’s on display in at Two Trees headquarters just landed in our inbox about half an hour ago. The Dock Street project that the developer is trying to sell to the public is tucked behind a huge “Brooklyn” sign that’s been plunked on the roof of the Empire Stores building….

But most eye-popping is the model of Brooklyn Bridge Park’s own marina. First we’ve heard of such a thing. Fantasy or reality?

Guessing that 12:12pm’s “NUMBY” =
Not Under My Bridge, Yo!
(hah)
Seeing this makes me ask, why such uproar over this building and its proximity to the Brooklyn Bridge?
Is the furor mostly rich NUMBY’s losing their view? It doesn’t seem to be 1) that close to the stone support portion of the bridge or 2) that out of context with that other building heights.
Explanation please.
wtf.
note also “Jane’s carousel” near the BB anchorage.
Dreadful. Sink the marina!
Add a couple of seafood restaurants and I am in “Brooklyn’s City Island”. To appeal to the low income residents, they should add a couple of large cafeteria type restaurants serving $10 shrimp boxes, at the end of the park of course.
I think even two trees says fantasy. Why take out beach and park (already done) that 1000s enjoy and replace with a marina that would be great … for a couple dozen people.
what happens to j condo? are the views towards the bridge completely obstructed?
why?
A marina here would be a shame.
