Parks Post Adrian Benepe, Commissioner Borough Beat Photo of the Month City of New York Manhattan Parks & Recreation Michael R. Bloomberg, Mayor Sept./Oct. 2007 Parks Post Adrian Benepe, Commissioner Borough Beat Photo of the Month Manhattan’s parks are getting better and better - an extensive reconstruction program is transforming parks throughout the borough. We recently opened the Harlem River Park ballfields with a $3.5 million synthetic turf field for baseball, football and soccer. Work was also completed on Father Demo Square, Tramway Plaza, two “tot lots” in Riverside Park and the Vesuvio Playground and new pool. Other improvements are not far behind at Columbus Park pavilion, Riverside Park promenade, Harlem River basketball courts and Sherman Creek Waterfront Parks. Thanks to the Mayor and local elected officials for funding these projects, and to community residents whose support helps make it all happen. See you in the parks! Adrian Benepe, An army of volunteers helps beautify Highbridge Park at the last It’s My Park! Day in May. The next volunteer day happens at sites all over Manhattan on Commissioner October 20.

Every school day until 6:00 p.m., thousands of New York City kids, ages 6 to 13 attend one of the Parks Department’s 35 Afterschool programs citywide. Parks Afterschool offers quality programs that promote the social, physical, intellectual and emotional development of children and youth. This past year, kids made comic books using computer graphics, choreographed dance routines, learned martial arts techniques, visited art museums, played musical instruments, learned chess through our ‘Chess-in- the-Schools’ programs, wrote poetry, planned their financial futures and participated in the first annual Afterschool Spelling Bee. The Parks Department partners with organizations like New York Cares, the YMCA, NYC Global Partners and the Museum of Arts & Design to bring new experiences to kids all over the City.

  • Self-Guided Tour of Soho
    (A) SoHo Square (site of former Richmond Hill) In 1760, a British major, Abraham Mortimer, who owned a 26-acre estate that encompassed parts of what is now SoHo, including the land around Spring Street and 6th Avenue, built a mansion and called it Richmond Hill. In 1776, the colonists declared war with General George Washington in charge. Briefly that year, Washington took over Richmond Hill mansion to use as his headquarters. After the Revolutionary War, Mortimer and his fellow Brits were no longer welcome in America and the mansion became home to America’s first Vice President John Adams and his wife, Abigail. In 1791, the mansion was purchased by Aaron Burr, America’s third vice-president. During the last year of his vice-presidency, 1804, Burr entered into a duel with his political foe, Alexander Hamilton, whom he fatally shot. (B) Dominique Ansel Bakery at 189 Spring Street This is the birthplace of the world-famous Cronut, a croissant-doughnut hybrid. Created in in 2013, this unique pastry innovation is trademarked by its creator, Dominique Ansel and pastry fans around the world have made it the most virally talked about dessert item in history. If you want to try one, you’ll have to get there early, since they sell out fast! They are open from Mondays to Saturdays from 8 am to 7 pm and Sunday from 9 am to 7 pm. (C) 188-190 Spring Street Federal Houses (1899) These are two of the remaining row houses on Spring Street that date to the late 1800s.
