Garden
Blooms
Thanks to your contributions we were able to plant over 900 bulbs last fall, making for a great display of color this spring. Other plants are filling in and the garden is creating the kind of green buffer between the play space and busy street we've always wanted. For a look at what this area used to look like, check out some before photos.
This is a completely privately funded and maintained garden.Thanks again to everyone, especially Jeanette Mall, for all the hard work.
EAT CLEAN SAND!!!
On Thursday, May 24, Bleecker Playground got NEW SAND!
This very expensive improvement was made possible through
generous donations from local families and residents.
Thank you to Town and Garden, whose crew worked all day,
even through the pouring rain, to complete the project.
Help us continue with our efforts by making a donation.
Together we make a difference.
BLEECKER PLAZA OPENS!
APRIL 2, 2012
Thanks to a $700,000 anonymous donation and an additional $300,000 from Speaker Christine Quinn's office, the seating area next to Bleecker Playground got a much needed update. Thank you to Ralph Musolino, Gail Wittwer Laird, and everyone at NYC Parks Department for making this happen. And thank you to Magnolia Bakery for volunteering additional trash pick up.
Cleaner, Greener, Safer!
