Downtown Brooklyn Pedestrian Study
Priority Recommendations: Flatbush Avenue

Overview | General Streetscape Recommendations | Focus Area Visions | Flatbush Avenue

Flatbush Avenue: • Introduction • Tillary St to Myrtle Ave • Myrtle Ave to Willoughby St
• Willoughby St to Fleet St • Fulton St to Hanson Pl

Myrtle Avenue to Willoughby Street
In conjunction with future development of the block south of Myrtle Avenue on the east side of Flatbush Avenue, Myrtle Avenue will be widened to accommodate a landscaped median, complementing the new development and creating a gateway to Myrtle Avenue and Fort Greene.

On the southwestern corner of Flatbush Avenue and Myrtle Avenue, the existing service road should be closed and reconfigured as a plaza in front of the Chase Building. This will reinforce the pedestrian environment on Flatbush Avenue by making the pedestrian route clearer and safer.

Priority Recommendations: Myrtle Avenue to Willoughby Street
