Uncertain over Totten, Plan to transfer an Army reserve center to the historic Queens fort raises concerns over its future use
2005
Overview
Activists who fought to have parts of Fort Totten turned into parkland are uneasy about a government proposal to have it converted into an Armed Forces Reserve Center. Under a Defense Department proposal to close military bases around the country, the Army Reserve 77th Regional Readiness Command stationed at Fort Totten would be transferred to Fort Dix, N.J. The 75 military personnel and 74 civilians in the unit would be replaced by an equal number from the Carpenter Reserve Center in Poughkeepsie. Ray Beckerman, president of the Fort Totten Conservancy, a watchdog group, voiced fears Friday that the parkland could revert to military use if the new proposal goes through.
