Please join Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz and Downtown Brooklyn Partnership President Joe Chan as they unveil the Downtown Brooklyn Commons Project Exhibit. Come see the architectural models, innovative plans and recommendations, created by talented students from City College, New York City College of Technology, Polytechnic University of NYU and Pratt Institute. The project’s goal is to seek ways to create meaningful connections between Down- town Brooklyn's existing open spaces and new Brooklyn Bridge Park and make our existing parklands a destination for visitors and more livable for residents and area employees.
