Bushwick Planning: 1970s to Current Times
This chapter, having reviewed the early development of Bushwick and Northeast Brooklyn in Chap. 1, examines Bushwick planning from the 1970s to current times. The focal point of this examination is the arson fires of 1977, given the wake-up call that incident had on the City of New York, the State and the Federal governments. The Chapter examines the urban recovery programs set in place post-1977 and offers a critique of those programs. Rounding out the chapter, the subject of changing practices within urban planning is introduced. The growing popularity of ‘green design’ is looked at, leading to the subject of sustainable urban planning (SUP) (Chap. 3).
