Glenwood Power Plant Parking Shelved Written by Ardina Seward
The disputed JFK Marina parking lot conversion has ended. The developer of the Glenwood Power Plant, Lela Goren, has withdrawn the proposal to build a parking garage in the JFK Marina with rooftop recreation and green park features.
An assemblage of Yonkers community groups worked to prevent Goren, a private developer, from building a parking garage in JFK Marina. An online petition garnered over 1,300 signatures. The project s plan was to establish a home for climate solutions in Yonkers with green jobs, educational programs and a partnership with local Groundwork Hudson Valley.
