Bedford Union Armory rendering

TYLin prepared an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) in conformance to City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) requirements for the redevelopment of the city-owned Bedford Union Armory in the Crown Heights section of Brooklyn.

The currently vacant armory is being redeveloped in cooperation with the New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC) to include affordable housing, community office space, and a community recreation center that includes basketball courts, a swimming pool, and indoor soccer field.

Since the armory is eligible for inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places, the environmental review includes a comprehensive cultural resources assessment, in addition to detailed traffic, pedestrian, air quality, noise, community facilities and services, land use, and other studies required under CEQR.
