Red Hook Flood Protection

Program Partners

• NYC Department of Design and Construction (DDC)

Program Description

The project will protect critical infrastructure in Red Hook, Brooklyn, NY from flooding conditions. The critical infrastructure includes three (3) unprotected electrical sub-stations which provide power to properties offering essential services to the community and key economic activities for the area. These services include a Food Bazaar grocery store (the primary grocery store for the community) and a container terminal as well as the Pier 11 terminal. This project will ensure the community recovers faster following a critical flood event.
