Annual Report 2013 BRONX RIVER by the NUMBERS
Annual Report 2013 BRONX RIVER BY THE NUMBERS Anyone who has observed the Bronx River over the years knows that dramatic change is underway. But what do the numbers tell us? Here’s a numerical snapshot of our progress since our founding in 2001. • New waterfront parkland created = 18 acres • New waterfront trails created = 3.5 miles • Amount raised for Bronx River Greenway and restoration = $163 million • Number of people who have paddled the river = 14,500 people (plus thousands more with partner organizations!) • Number of new boat launches on a river where none previously existed = 7 • Number of teachers trained to use the Bronx River as an outdoor classroom = 2,300 • Numbers of students who have touched and been touched by the river = 9,500 • Number of trees planted = 95,000 • Number of beavers living in the river = 2 • Number of volunteer hours dedicated to restoring and enjoying the river = 100,000 • Number of awards for our work, our parks, and our beaver = 30+ These numbers are a powerful reminder that our river, once a neglected eyesore, is now a source of community pride, where people come to canoe, bike, picnic and learn. The greenway trail system is coming together with 20 miles along the full river currently open for use. The river is getting cleaner and more beautiful year by year, the Alliance is growing stronger and deeper as an organization, and above all, the communities along the river are making it more and more their own. Join us and discover what these facts and figures mean for our river, our communities, and our city. -
