Waterfront Alliance announced that its proposed climate resilience plan for Flushing Meadows Corona Park has been awarded $531,000 in Community Project Funding as part of the new federal spending package that was recently signed into law.
Last spring, Congresswoman Grace Meng submitted her 10 community funding requests to the House Appropriations Committee for review.
The primary objectives of Waterfront Alliance’s “Flushing Meadows Corona Park: A Hub for Climate Resilience” are to increase public awareness about local climate risks; build community participation in planning and infrastructure projects; and identify potential resilience solutions for future investigations and development.
