Vision for Flatbush Avenue Streetscape from Tillary Street

An in-depth analysis was undertaken to generate site specific recommendations for Flatbush Avenue. The Downtown Brooklyn Development Plan has created opportunities for new commercial and residential development along Flatbush Avenue. New development will result in increased pedestrian use and opportunities to create a pedestrian-oriented streetscape. While each block of Flatbush Avenue within the study area has different issues and opportunities, it is important for the length of the street to have a unified streetscape identity. The following recommendations for each individual block reflect the design framework for the street as a whole.
