About this Event
📢 Rally to Protect Our Waterfront! 🚢
🔴 STOP the Brooklyn Marine Terminal Giveaway! 🔴
📅 Date: April 10th 6:30-7:30
📍 Location: corner of Hamilton and Van Brunt Street
⏰ Time:
The city is rushing to turn Brooklyn Marine Terminal—OUR public land—into a private real estate project with little public input and no real oversight. We say NO to backroom deals that sell off our working waterfront!
🏗 What’s at Stake?
❌ The possiblity of good-paying industrial and maritime jobs
❌ More traffic and pollution in our neighborhood
❌ Displacement of businesses that serve our city
❌ A rushed process with NO transparency or City Council approval
✅ What We Demand:
✔ A REAL planning process—not one designed to benefit developers
✔ Protections for industrial and maritime jobs that keep our city running
✔ Stronger flood resilience measures for our waterfront community
✔ More time for public input—NO rushed decisions!
📣 Join your neighbors, workers, and local leaders to demand a fair, transparent, and accountable process for Brooklyn Marine Terminal! Once public land is lost to private developers, we can never get it back!
✊ Let’s show up, speak out, and fight for our community!
