Silverstein thanked Cord Meyer Development for sponsoring the venue and cited recent community wins, including the reopening of the Bay Terrace Library, the partial redesign of its adjacent playground, ongoing renovations at P.S. 169, and the 109th Precinct’s plans to establish a permanent satellite location in the neighborhood.
