The North/West Battery Park City Resiliency (NWBPCR) Project is designing protective measures along the northern and western portions of Battery Park City to reduce the risks associated with storm surge and sea level rise.

At our last public meeting in June (view the presentation & video), the NWBPCR project team collected public input on the project’s 30% design milestone. Since then, the project team has continued to develop the design and is ready to share a Post 30% Design Update.
