Keep the Waterfront Promises

The 2005 Waterfront Rezoning plan has completely altered our community's environment with more than a dozen residential towers either built or in construction along the waterfront. The city promised that our neighborhood, having long suffered one of the lowest ratios of open space per capita and as well as a housing crisis, would receive -- in tandem with the onslaught of development -- new parks and affordable housing. Now, four years later, those needs are now more pressing than ever and the excuses for inaction by the city and the MTA have become completely unacceptable.

Please sign and mail this letter asking the City to create the park at 65 Commercial Street. The timing for this action is critical.
