“The Hunts Point Terminal Produce Cooperative is among New York City’s most important economic assets. We are pleased that the exclusive negotiating period has been extended. However, the 90 day extension is not enough. We must work together to ensure the Hunts Point Terminal Produce Market remains in the Bronx for the long-term.

“The Hunts Point Terminal Produce Market is a vital part of the Bronx and our city, and we look forward to working with our Council colleagues, the NYC Economic Development Corporation, and interested stakeholders to ensure Hunts Point remains a growing center of good jobs and economic activity.”
