Meetings About Crown Heights Homeless Shelter, Bedford-Union Armory Postponed Because Of Blizzard

CROWN HEIGHTS, BROOKLYN — Crown Heights residents will have to wait a little bit longer to voice their thoughts again about two controversial pieces of development planned for the neighborhood.

A public meeting about a homeless shelter at 1173 Bergen St., scheduled for Tuesday evening, has been postponed because of an incoming blizzard that could dump as much as two feet of snow on the city.

The meeting was re-scheduled for Wednesday, March 15, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at T-Tech School, on Albany Avenue between Bergen and Dean streets.

Second, a status update on the Bedford-Union Armory re-development, hosted by City Council Member Laurie Cumbo was also postponed because of the snow threat. The meeting was also originally scheduled for Tuesday night.

A replacement date was not immediately available.
