Restler, Reynoso to host rally aimed at judges’ parking lot

Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso and Councilmember Lincoln Restler are advocating for the inclusion of a lot at Joralemon and Adams streets into a broader $21 million modernization of Columbus Park. The site is currently reserved for New York State Supreme Court judges, who have previously opposed the plan due to security concerns.

The proposed redesign, supported by the Downtown Brooklyn Partnership, would replace the asphalt with a sloped lawn and a kiosk. The rally is scheduled for Sunday, May 31, at 12:00 p.m. at the Joralemon Street entrance. Supporters are seeking mayoral intervention to move the project forward following past administrative delays.
