Enhanced Pedestrian Environment
Key to the success of the Downtown Brooklyn Plan is enhancing
the pedestrian streetscape by improving safety and by
fostering connections between the Downtown Brooklyn commercial
core and the surrounding residential communities. Flatbush
Avenue would be a gateway and a ‘seam’ tying
both sides of the avenue together, rather than its current
function as an eyesore and a divider. Signage throughout
Downtown Brooklyn would be upgraded through new zoning
regulations that limit size, location and illumination.
