DESIGN WORKSHOP ACTIVITY INSTRUCTIONS:

1

On April 15th, 2019, BPCA held a public community engagement meeting at 6 River Terrace for the South Battery Park City Resiliency Project. If you weren’t able to attend that night, the good news is you still have time to provide your feedback.

A Design Workshop Activity took place to capture feedback and input from the community on how the community experiences and uses Wagner Park currently and how they envision the future evolution of the park. The Design Workshop Activity from the public community engagement meeting is within this document. All this input will be used between now and the project’s next public meeting, where conceptual designs will be presented.

If you want to reference previous information, presentations, or videos on the South Battery Park City Resiliency Project, please go to this link to Battery Park City’s website.

Your voice counts!

Thank you and we look forward to continuing this dialogue with the Battery Park City community!
