Outdoor green space, including a public square, is coming in the next few years to Willoughby Street in Downtown Brooklyn.
The street has seen a surge in commercial development in the past few years with new businesses and high-rise apartments opening.
Urban planners are now plotting out green space for the area. The public square will also feature a parking garage underground.
Construction on the square will begin next summer and is expected to be completed in 2016.
