RED HOOK — A SPECIAL EXHIBITION —  “Brooklyn Marine Terminal: Past, Present, & What’s Next for Red Hook?” — will hold its opening Friday night from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Compere Collective, 351 Van Brunt St. in Red Hook. 

The display, hosted by Resilient Red Hook in collaboration with Pratt Institute’s School of Architecture, features student work that explores alternative visions for the BMT, bringing academic insight, community priorities and design innovation together. The exhibition follows Tuesday’s release of an alternative new proposal from the City Club of New York that would restore the BMT to a fully-functional maritime/Blue Highways hub, in contrast to the current housing-centric plan being advanced by the city’s Economic Development Corporation.

Please RSVP for the opening night event at Eventbrite. The show runs through Feb. 20.
