Saturday, April 28, 10am. UNITY 2007: It's Not a Done Deal - An all day workshop to create a community driven development.

In 2004 Council Member Letitia James brought together hundreds of community members, local architects, planners and designers to develop an alternative to the proposed Forest City Ratner Atlantic Yards development. The result was the UNITY Plan and a set of Planning Principles, which reflect community needs, priorities and visions for the development of the Vanderbilt Yards.

With lawsuits pending, and mounting opposition to the project, Forest City Ratner's plan is anything but a done deal. What if the project is not built? What if it's only partly built? Then what? It is now time to create the UNITY 2007 Plan, an updated and comprehensive plan for the Vanderbilt Yards, developed for and by the residents of Brooklyn.
