Reinventing Brooklyn’s Grand Army Plaza
The Leonard Lopate Show | May 10, 2010
Brooklyn’s Grand Army Plaza is the main entrance to Prospect Park, and it’s been called New York City's answer to the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. However, the space as it is used today is difficult to walk around, drive around, and is generally not very user-friendly.
The Design Trust for Public Space is launching a new project to redesign Grand Army Plaza. Tupper Thomas of Prospect Park and Deborah Marton of the Design Trust for Public Space talk about how GAP could be improved - and they want to hear your ideas on making it more user-friendly!
Weigh in: What do you like and dislike about the way Grand Army Plaza is currently used? What would you like to see changed?
