Let us know your thoughts on 4th Ave!
Ten years ago, FOFA (Forth on Fourth Avenue) sponsored a community survey and stakeholder meeting to focus attention on and garner resources for our stretch of Brooklyn’s 4th Ave. Close to 400 people took the survey and we had a standing-room only crowd at the stakeholder meeting. Today, with dramatic physical changes along 4th Ave and adjacent neighborhoods, as well as a new population influx, we are again inviting community opinions and partnering with local organizations (like yours) to circulate a follow-up survey.
Survey results will be tabulated and distributed prior to a public meeting on Wednesday May 15 at the Old Stone House. We are inviting elected officials, key city agencies and YOU to join us in the discussion at that meeting. This is your chance to express your views about 4th Ave. We need YOUR input!
FOFA is a local community group that has been advocating for a safer, cleaner, greener, and more vibrant 4th Ave (from Times Plaza to Prospect Expressway) for over a decade. We, working with others, advocated for 4th Ave safety
improvements (including the bike lane), for planting over 100 trees (many with tree guards), for preservation of the Pacific Street Library, and for temporary art at the 4th Ave/9th St subway station. We have also sponsored clean-ups and tree bed planting - those daffodils on 4th Ave were planted by us and our friends! Learn more about us at www.4fofa.org
