Nov 6: Walkabout on Fourth Avenue

Fourth Avenue is changing by the day. All you have to do is take a walk on that wide Avenue to see that it is undergoing a major evolution that will have a major impact on life in all the surrounding neighborhoods.

That’s why on Saturday, November 6th, the Park Slope Civic Council is organizing a Walkabout on Fourth Avenue as a way to inform neighbors about these prospective changes, and get input from the community.

On November 6th at 9:30 AM meet at Fourth Avenue and Ninth Street, under the east underpass of the subway station
(Rain date: Sunday, November 7, 2:30 PM)…

* Learn about prospective plans for the Fourth Avenue / Ninth Street subway station
* Learn about improvements to safety along Fourth Avenue already underway
* Learn about plans to plant, beautify, and green along the corridor
* Learn about renovations to Washington Park (formerly JJ Byrne Park)
* Learn about proposals for the empty lot at Fourth Avenue and Sackett Street
* Give your ideas / feedback / suggestions for further, better improvements

Improvements to the Fourth Avenue corridor between the Prospect Expressway and Flatbush Avenue — while slow to arrive — are definitely coming!  This is a chance for everyone to have a voice in what happens on Fourth Avenue.
