Downtown Brooklyn Partnership (DBP) is a not-for-profit local development corporation based in Brooklyn, New York. It acts as the primary champion of Downtown Brooklyn as a destination for business, culture, education, residential life, and retail. Working with three business improvement districts—the MetroTech BID, Fulton Mall Improvement Association, and Court-Livingston-Schermerhorn BID—the organization manages more than a million square feet of public space and undertakes efforts to attract investment, improve conditions for existing companies, and advance infrastructure that supports a cohesive community and engaged civic life. Its activities target local businesses, residents, cultural assets, institutions, and visitors seeking a well-organized urban environment. Founded in 2006, the organization operates with a relatively small staff and in 2024 released an interactive StoryMap that uses Google Street View and historic imagery to document the area’s evolution.
