Located on Nassau St., between the Manhattan Bridge and the BQE, Trinity Park is a pocket park that is situated nearby a large swath of publicly inaccessible, Park-owned land. The space is cut off by BQE access ramps and traffic infrastructure predominantly occupies it.

There is potential to unlock the area through streetscaping and the reconfiguration of the BQE-Manhattan Bridge interchange. This would ultimately transform the space into a usable, pedestrian + bike friendly area, ideal for public art installations, events, gatherings and park facilities.

These changes are just the top of the iceberg for the Brooklyn Strand Community Vision. To learn more about what’s in store, join us for our upcoming tour on October 28th:
