I meant to say 10/12, not 9/12

I was there today, 9/15/08, looks beautiful but STILL closed and fenced in. I did see a homeless fellow sleeping by a planter of tall grasses. At least someone is getting to use it. Summer is officially over, this is an absolute shame.

Thanks for this info! I was scouring the net trying to see if this was open yet. Getting my rollerblades out as we speak…

As of August 16th the park was still not open. What is going on? It is already more than a year behind schedule and another summer has almost gone by without a park.

Any more updates on the piers? Can Savona tell us if the ugly chain link fencing is temporary? I certainly hope it is. And when will this ferry service begin to New Jersey. Sounds great. I hear a Trader Joe’s is there!

Good afternoon,

I chair the Committee for the Piers. We have about two weeks before a soft opening. If the public has questions please contact CB9 in West Harlem 212-864-6200. We are disseminating information every week on the progress.

Thanks

Editor: If you can share the information with us, we will pass it on to our readers. Thanks.
