Park Slope chamber moves forward with plans for 7th Ave. BID
Plans to establish a business improvement district on one of Brooklyn’s trendiest shopping streets – 7th Avenue in Park Slope – are moving along on schedule, according to a leader of the organizing group.
Tammy Shaw, chairman of the Steering Committee for the Park Slope Chamber of Commerce, said the business group has filed an application with the New York City Department of Small Business Services to set up a BID on a 16-block stretch of 7th Avenue from St. John’s Place to 16th Street. There are approximately 300 stores in the zone, Shaw said.
“We’re in the outreach phase of the process. It’s a crucial part of the process,” Shaw told the Brooklyn Daily Eagle.
