Thank you again to everyone who has signed and shared the petition calling for a reconsideration of the Bridgeport Harbor Station smokestack demolition. The level of public interest has been clear, and conversations with residents, local groups, and officials are ongoing.

We are now looking to better connect with people who want to be involved—whether that means helping organize, sharing expertise, or simply connecting us with others who may care about the site’s future.

Important note: We recently learned that replies to Change.org update emails may not reliably reach petition organizers. If you replied to a previous update and didn’t hear back, that may be why.

New contact email:

📩 bpt.advocacy@gmail.com

If you’re interested, please email us directly—even a short note helps. This is also a great place to reach out if:

• You live in Black Rock, the South End, or Downtown
• You know community members, artists, historians, business owners, or organizers who may want to engage
• You’re unsure how to help but want to stay involved
   

Attend an upcoming public meeting:

🗓 NRZ Meeting — February 12, 6:00 PM

📍 University of Bridgeport, Bauer Hall

This is a valuable opportunity to hear directly from local stakeholders and make your voice part of the public record.

Finally, please forward this message, as well as the petition, to anyone you think would be interested in signing or getting involved. Thank you for your continued support. More updates soon.
