The SunsetParkMatters blog has been created to track the physical changes taking place in our community, as well as the impact these changes are having on our quality of life. Sunset Park cannot survive the onslaught of irresponsible, inappropriate and, "right down ugly" over-building we continue to experience. Don't wait for anyone else to stop and, hopefully, reverse the destruction of Sunset Park. The people responsible for this out-of-control construction don't even live here, you and I are the ones being affected. Please document every change on your and neighboring block(s). This blog will post all "before & after" pictures and we are keeping a database of construction permits filed, permits approved and violations/stop work orders issued. You will be able to request information about your block by posting your questions.

Please see Calendar Item 3 on this just-received hearing announcement from the Brooklyn Borough President's Office. Sunset Park's ULURP-Uniformed Land Use Review Procedure- is moving unusually fast which means each of us must stay involved throughout this process and make our thoughts and wishes known to the powers that be. It is our neighborhood, It is our quality of life, It is Our Future that's on the line (read: yours, mine, our children, their children and their children's children)- please get involved! It's not a done deal, far from it. See you on the 10th!
