BPC Ball Fields & Community Center Resiliency Project

The BPC Ball Fields & Community Center Resiliency Project, primary construction on which is now complete, entails construction of an independent flood barrier system along the eastern, northern, and southern boundaries of the BPC Ball Fields. The approximately 800-linear foot barrier system protects the 80,000 square foot playing surface – used by some 50,000 local youth annually – and adjacent community center from the risks associated with storm surge and sea level rise.
