  • New Zendo Lease Signed

    Published April 7th, 2008

    As of this past Saturday, we have signed a new lease at 398 9th Street in Brooklyn. The Brooklyn Zen Center will be moving the week of May 11th and officially opens its doors at the new location on Saturday, May 17th, 2008.

    We want to communicate our deep appreciation to Claudia and Grady for allowing us to rent their basement for the first three years of the life of our sangha. The two of you have always been very generous and gracious, especially in extending your apartment during sesshins. It has been a wonderful space to be these past years and I know many of us will miss it.

    We also want to thank Peter, who has graciously rented us the ground floor apartment of his home for use as a zendo space. With a full apartment, there will be many opportunities provided the sangha for community gathering, expanded classes, and Zen practice.

    And thanks to all of you who have provided thoughtful input regarding the moving process. I am sure there will be opportunities for more to come as our collective creativity gives birth to a new zendo. There will be much to do over these next few weeks and I look forward to hearing your ideas as we take on the challenges and changes of a new place of practice together.
