The Park-Webster Neighborhood Plan is a community-driven initiative led by Council Member Oswald Feliz as part of a broader effort championed by Council Speaker Julie Menin to strengthen local planning and community engagement across New York City. 

The planning process will bring together residents, businesses, community organizations, and stakeholders to develop a shared vision for the future of the Park and Webster Avenue corridors. 

Through this effort, the community will identify opportunities to: 

Support local businesses and economic growth

Improve neighborhood services and amenities

Expand housing opportunities, including pathways to homeownership

Enhance streets, public spaces, and neighborhood connections

Promote cleaner, safer, and more welcoming public spaces

• Opportunity Near Transit: Underused sites near transit create opportunities to bring new housing, jobs, and neighborhood-serving uses.
• Better Neighborhood Connections: There is potential to improve streets, public spaces, and connections between surrounding communities.
• Community-Led Growth: Residents have an opportunity to help shape future investment and development through a shared vision.
