The BIG Picture
Is a except from the NYCEDC "request"
"ATLANTIC BASIN/BROOKLYN (NY) – The New York City Economic Development Corporation (“NYCEDC”) is seeking expressions of interest for the development and operation of the Atlantic Basin (the “Site”) for uses including, but not limited to, water-borne transit, maritime support services, marine repair and refit, and/or a recreational marina. A key site in the redevelopment of the Brooklyn waterfront, the Atlantic Basin represents a unique opportunity to introduce new marine activity on the East River. Development proposals should leverage the locational advantages of the Site, provide local marine-based economic development opportunities that coordinate with surrounding planned development, and establish new public access points to the waterfront.
