The Brooklyn Paper‘s most recent issue included a front page article on the status of the Edge phase II park. W designed the entire Edge park – phase I is already open and in use and phase II will open soon. The park includes three new piers – the Empire pier, the Get Down pier, and a new ferry pier. The new piers will allow increased access and views to the East River and the park will act as a gateway to the river with corridors providing visual connection to the iconic Manhattan skyline. The park will transform the former industrial site to be 50% permeable, planted with groups of native plants and part of the LEED silver rating for the project. We look forward to the entire Edge park being open to all!
