About this Event

📢 Rally to Protect Our Waterfront! 🚢

🔴 STOP the Brooklyn Marine Terminal Giveaway! 🔴

📅 Date: April 3rd
📍 Location: zcorner 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!
