The Interborough Express (IBX) is a planned light rail line that will connect Brooklyn and Queens along an existing freight rail corridor. This project is currently in the planning phase, and has the potential to bring major changes to parts of both boroughs that are not currently well-served by public transportation.
As part of Made in NYC Week (A project of the Pratt Center), The Office of Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso is planning a series of events related to Brooklyn’s industrial sector. In partnership with the Regional Plan Association (who originally conceptualized the IBX), this walk invites participants to observe the future route on the Bensonhurst/Borough Park border and asks: How can we best balance moving people and moving freight? What could the future hold for jobs and industry along the route?
