Fort Greene's Fowler Square Reopens To The Public, City Says

FORT GREENE, NY — The renovated Fowler Square in Fort Greene reopened to the public earlier this month with more trees, tables and more, the city said.

Workers completed the construction of the square, at the intersection of Fulton Street and Lafayette Avenue, after they closed it last year to turn it into a more permanent location, according to the Department of Transportation and Brownstoner.

The renovated square got new seating, bike parking, lighting and pedestrian-safety improvements added to it, according to the Fulton Area Businesses (FAB) Alliance.

Fowler Square first opened in 2012 and plans were released the next year to expand the plaza, Brownstoner reporter.

The city closed the square in April to complete work on the project and reopened it on May 11, according to the FAB Alliance.
