Dear Citi Bike Expansion Team, I am writing on behalf of our school to request consideration for a Citi Bike station near our new campus at 787 Lafayette Avenue, Brooklyn, where we will relocate this fall. Our school is growing rapidly and will ultimately serve approximately 500 students, with 400 students already enrolled for this coming school year. As we prepare for this transition, we are also considering how to ensure safe, convenient, and sustainable transportation options for our staff and families. Many of our staff members rely on public transportation to commute. Our current location at 272 MacDonough Street is within walking distance of the Utica Avenue subway station and the Long Island Rail Road station, making commuting relatively convenient. Our new location at 787 Lafayette Avenue will require a significantly longer walk from nearby transit, creating an additional challenge for many employees. A Citi Bike station near our new campus would provide an important transportation option for both staff and families. It would help bridge the gap between public transit and our school, support environmentally friendly commuting, and increase accessibility for the hundreds of students, educators, and visitors who will travel to our campus each day. We would greatly appreciate your consideration of a Citi Bike station in the vicinity of 787 Lafayette Avenue as part of future expansion efforts. We believe it would be a valuable resource not only for our school community but also for the surrounding neighborhood. Thank you for your time and consideration. We would welcome the opportunity to discuss this request further and provide any additional information that may be helpful. Sincerely, Assistant Principal Richards Brooklyn Brownstone School 16K628

Please could you add a new Citi Bike station at the corner of 39th Street and 2nd Ave? Construction has finished on this apartment building, the sidewalk is oversized, and there are no closer stations within a ~5 minute walk. If you can't add a station here, it would be extremely helpful to add a station somewhere in this area that does not require walking to 1st Ave or Lexington Ave.

We desperately need more capacity in the Brooklyn Navy Yard. There are more businesses moving into the Yard everyday. Couple that with increased "return to office mandates, and increased ferry riders it is impossible to park near work if you get in later than 9:30 in the morning. My day often starts at 10:00 and if I want to bike I need be prepared to park very far from my office or get in unnecessarily early. I urge you to review the usage in the area and please help. I love using citi bike to commute to work but it is getting increasingly difficult and frustrating to do so. Thank you
