Eco Dock coming to the 69th Street Pier
Bay Ridge will soon have direct access to the waterfront with an Eco Dock, planned to be built adjacent to the 69th Street Pier.
Community residents, educators and leaders met at the Bay Ridge Library with the Metropolitan Waterfront Alliance on April 26 to discuss the dock, which will be used solely for recreational and educational purposes and maintained by the Parks Departments Marine Division. The eco dock is expected to open in either fall, 2012, or spring, 2013.
For two decades, you couldnt get the bay to the Ridge or the Ridge to the bay its time we change that, said Roland Lewis, president of the MWA. Its part of creating a citywide comprehensive waterfront.
