Brooklyn Greenway Initiative and Regional Plan Association are coordinating a comprehensive planning process for the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway. One of the objectives of this effort is to frame an approach to maintenance and stewardship for the greenway that can be implemented as the greenway is built. This document is intended to define the broad parameters of this stewardship plan and to serve as the vehicle for achieving consensus among public agency and private stakeholders. It will be followed by a business plan for the operation and maintenance of the greenway.
