Brooklyn Heights Library redevelopment meeting Tuesday, Oct. 7 at Borough Hall
Brooklyn Public Library’s (BPL) Community Advisory Committee will be meeting at Brooklyn Borough Hall on Tuesday, October 7 at 6:30 p.m. to discuss the next steps in the redevelopment of the Brooklyn Heights Branch Library.
Topics will include the selection of the developer of the Heights site, the next steps involved in the Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP) and the interim library space (Our Lady of Lebanon Church) in Brooklyn Heights. This discussion is open to the public.
In mid-September, BPL trustees voted to sell the Brooklyn Heights branch to Hudson Companies/Marvel Architects for $52 million. Hudson plans a 30-story mixed use project, which would include a space for a replacement branch library.
The Business Library, which currently shares the building with the Heights branch, would be moved to the Central Library at Grand Army Plaza.
