In Progress

In recognition of businesses’ and residents’ demand for increased options for broadband, DoITT will perform outreach to its cable and information services franchisees of the opportunity for network expansion in the Gowanus IBZ. DoITT will also alert providers when capital work is being performed for operational and cost-efficiency (including DEP sewer construction work). The City will explore the feasibility of coordinating broadband conduit work as part of the 4th Avenue & Carroll Street sewer reconstruction project initiation process, either through franchisees or pending funding availability, public conduit.

2022 Start

In 2021, the City requested proposals to address connectivity issues citywide, including Gowanus. Proposals are currently being reviewed by OTI.

MAYOR'S OFFICE OF OPERATIONS (Ops)

In Progress

The Task Force will continue to work with local advocates and community members on identifying three quarter houses and addressing immediate health and safety issues. This includes refreshing data on three quarter houses and inspecting new potential addresses as they are brought to the task force, as well as promoting the Rapid Rehousing Hotline. Human Resources Administration (HRA) will follow up on referrals from local elected officials and tenant advocacy groups.

Ongoing

The Task Force has continued its work to identify three-quarter houses across the five boroughs, leveraging City data and referrals from local elected officials, tenant advocacy groups and 311. The Task Force conducts weekly inspections of known three-quarter houses in order to address immediate health and safety issues. In addition, HRA has established the Rapid Rehousing Hotline where three-quarter house residents can call to make complaints. Depending on the nature of the call, HRA staff contact HPD and request an inspection which usually occurs within three days. Residents living in three-quarter housing are also encouraged to call 311 to log complaints related to health and safety in three-quarter houses. 311 accepts a broad range of complaints every day. If the caller does not reference "a three-quarter house" the assigned agency will follow up in their standard course of business.

Upgrade sewer infrastructure to alleviate flooding conditions.

DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION (DEP)

In Progress

• DEP will upgrade sewer infrastructure to alleviate flooding conditions in the vicinity of 4th Avenue and Carroll Street. The project would include an upgraded sewer and an upgraded pumping station in the location of the existing 19th Street Pump Station at the intersection of 19th Street and 3rd Avenue.
Specifically, DEP will upgrade 3,000 linear feet of double barrel box sewers and an additional 1,000 linear feet of single box sewers. To complement the sewer upgrades and provide additional pumping capacity during wet weather, DEP will also rehabilitate and expand the capacity of the 19th Street Pumping Station. In addition, DEP will replace 4,000 linear feet of older water mains, which will provide enhanced reliability to residents and alleviate low pressure issues.
The project would alleviate street flooding during a 5-year storm and would substantially reduce CSO flowing to the new Owls Head tank since the project would be redirecting flow from the watershed to new outfall, closer Gowanus Bay.
By addressing street flooding the project would improve the usability of major local roadways including 3rd and 4th Avenues in a neighborhood with a current population of approximately 50 thousand people and a major business corridor for the new population to be introduced with the rezoning.

2021 Start

DEP has confirmed the larger pumping station required to complement the larger deeper sewers can be located on the existing DEP owned 19th Street PS site and will initiate procurement process. Additionally, DEP is preparing the Community Parks Initiative (CPI) for an upgraded sewer project with construction tentatively scheduled to start in FY27.

Work to identify suitable and feasible locations for in-water recreational access and share design concepts with Gowanus Community prior to Waterfront Certification.

DEPARTMENT OF CITY PLANNING (DCP)

In Progress

• The Gowanus Plan’s Waterfront Access Plan (WAP) provides incentives for developers to include boat or kayak launches and tidal wetlands within waterfront public access areas. Lightstone, an existing mixed-use residential building on the Canal, provides an example of how a private development can provide both a boat launch and a boathouse in the building’s ground floor for the Gowanus Dredgers Canoe Club, a volunteer organization dedicated to providing waterfront access and education to the public.
The City will explore potential in-water access at two City-controlled locations: Gowanus Green and the 2nd Ave street end by the Salt Lot. At Gowanus Green, in-water access at the future park will determined through a robust community engagement process as well as work to determine the engineering feasibility. At the Salt Lot, DEP will evaluate water access during design of the Owls Head site. DEP has heard the request from local stakeholders, including the Gowanus Dredgers, and look forward to studying the feasibility of including it in the project.
The City will also work with waterfront owners, developers, and community stakeholders to identify suitable locations in segments of the canal that do not currently (or in the future) have in-water access such as boat launches and docks, including sharing design concepts with the Gowanus community prior to Certification by Chair of the City Planning Commission.

TBD

DCP Brooklyn Office is directing applicant and design teams to consider in-water access feasibility and to engage with community.
