Description

Description

A $95 million plan to address chronic flooding issues in the Homecrest neighborhood of Brooklyn. The project covers about 350 acres including Kings Highway, Coney Island Avenue, and Avenues P through V. It involves upgrading tennis courts at Kelly Park, installing porous pavement in parking lanes to improve rainwater seepage, and constructing an underground storage tank beneath the tennis courts to temporarily hold excess stormwater until the sewer system can manage it. The system is designed to handle 2.3 inches of rain per hour and is part of a broader city effort to upgrade stormwater management in South Brooklyn public spaces.
