Adams: Brooklyn’s Sandy recovery map will increase accountability, transparency
Three years after Superstorm Sandy, Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams and other city officials unveiled a map showing exactly what storm recovery and resiliency projects are underway in the borough.
The map – which Adams called an “accountability map” — details where dollars are being spent on hundreds of projects both along Brooklyn’s coastline and in its interior, ranked by budget size.
These projects include neighborhood studies and small business support, New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) upgrades, stormwater management, health care and transportation improvements, and US Army Corps of Engineers projects, among others.
