Brooklyn Bridge Montgomery Coastal Resiliency (BMCR)

New York, NY

The BMCR Project is an integrated coastal protection initiative part of the overall Lower Manhattan Coastal Resiliency (LMCR) Project aimed at reducing flood risk due to coastal storms and sea level rise in Lower Manhattan. The BMCR Project spans the Lower Manhattan coast from Montgomery Street to the northern end of Brooklyn Bridge and seeks to improve access to the waterfront and enhance public spaces in the community.

This project includes the installation of 193 flood gates, 186 of which are Floodbreak auto-passive flood barriers. In addition, there will be wall construction at the same height as the flood gates, micropile installation, jet grouting, landscape – hard/softscape work, bike lane construction, & public amenities all across roughly four hundred thousand square feet of Manhattan.
