BROOKLYN MARINE TERMINAL GPP
BROOKLYN, NEW YORK
Transforming Brooklyn’s industrial waterfront into a modern maritime port and vibrant mixed-use community
MASTERPLANNING / URBAN DESIGN
OFTN and Buro Happold are supporting the City of New York in its efforts to revitalize Brooklyn Marine Terminal (BMT),a 122-acre stretch of Brooklyn’s waterfront and reimagine it as a critical hub on the city’s Blue Highways waterborne freight network, connecting multiple sites along New York City’s Harbor of the Future.
The BMT General Project Plan (GPP) charts a new future for this site and includes modern maritime infrastructure; the delivery of jobs, new housing, and light industrial and commercial space; infrastructure improvements; new public open space; and waterfront access and resiliency measures that protect against climate change and sea-level rise. The BMT Plan offers a long-overdue revitalization of this vital portion of Brooklyn’s waterfront and reimagines the future of NYC’s Harbor to fuel 21st-century innovation and growth.
