Amid controversy, Bedford-Union Armory ULURP process kicks off in Brooklyn
New York City Planning Commission’s certification on Monday started the ULURP (Uniform Land Use Review Procedure) approval process for the controversial Bedford-Union Armory redevelopment plan.
The war of words between opponents and supporters continued over the weekend. Just days after city Councilmember Laurie Cumbo and a host of elected officials blasted the redevelopment plan, supporters rallied for the project in Crown Heights.
On Sunday, proponents led by Rev. Dr. Daryl G. Bloodsaw, Pastor of the First Baptist Church of Crown Heights, emphasized the advantages the development would bring to the neighborhood.
