Parks Dept. calling for a café at Cadman Plaza parkhouse
A small parkhouse in Cadman Plaza Park, at the corner of Tillary Street and Cadman Plaza West, could soon be the site of a café, according to the city.
Phil Abramson, revenue communications director with the Parks Department, will present the agency’s “intent to issue a significant Request for Proposals (RFP) for the development, operation and maintenance of a café at Cadman Plaza Park,” according to a release from Community Board 2.
The small, boxlike structure was formerly used as a park office. The city’s Franchise and Concessions Plan describes the proposal as a snack bar.
The café is planned in addition to another concession proposed for the north side of the War Memorial Building, part of the Brooklyn Strand plan.
