The rezoning proposal “threatens the working-class character, affordability and social cohesion of the Sunset Park community,” said Elizabeth Yeampierre, the Executive Director of local activist group UPROSE. “If Industry City wants to develop in Sunset Park they must do so in context.” She recommended the proposal be amended and that Industry City officials work with local residents on a revised version, called the GRID proposal (Green Resilient Industrial District), which they have already drafted and will address environmental concerns in the area.
