Tuesday, December 16, 2025, from 5:30–7:30 PM town hall concerning the proposed redevelopment of the New Utrecht Public Library and the adjacent municipal parking lot in Bensonhurst.
This meeting is a chance for residents to speak directly about a project that could significantly alter the scale, density, and character of our neighborhood. While many details remain unclear, the proposal involves both a public library site and a major city parking facility—assets that serve thousands of local families, seniors, and small businesses.
Developments of this size raise serious and reasonable questions:
• How tall and dense will the new building be? Number of units?
• What happens to existing parking?
• How will increased traffic and strain on local services be addressed?
• Will the final outcome reflect the needs of Bensonhurst residents?
This town hall is an opportunity for constituents to speak openly, ask direct questions, and express concerns without pre-set conclusions or scripted outcomes.
