Welcome to BARA activism homepage

BARA opposes the proposed East River Plaza Home Depot/Costco shopping mall (116th to 119th Streets, FDR Drive to Pleasant Avenue) scheduled at the site at the old Washburn Coat Hanger Factory. The development would result in the uprooting of numerous smaller businesses and residents and threatens our community, our children's health, our lifestyle and our livelihood.
