Lower East Side – You Can Help Plan the Lowline Through Community Engagement Committee
(DNAINFO) Allegra Hobbs | April 29, 2016 — The committee, which launches Saturday, will play a direct role in planning for the underground park.
Community members on Saturday will get a chance to weigh in and contribute ideas for the Lowline, the underground park coming to an old trolley station under Delancey Street.
Councilwoman Margaret Chin at noon will help launch a “community engagement committee” at the Lowline Lab at 140 Essex St. in an effort to further engage locals in the planning process, said co-founder Dan Barasch.
“This committee will directly help inform the design and programming of the Lowline,” he said. “We want to have an open dialogue with as many people as possible.”
