  • July 8 Grants Press Release
    CITY PARKS FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES 109 GRANTS THROUGH NYC GREEN RELIEF & RECOVERY FUND AND GREEN / ARTS LIVE NYC GRANT APPLICATION NOW OPEN FOR PARK VOLUNTEER GROUPS Funding Awarded For Maintenance and Stewardship of Parks by Nonprofit Organizations and For Free Live Performances in Parks, Plazas, and Gardens Across NYC July 8, 2021 - NEW YORK, NY - City Parks Foundation announced today the selection of 109 grants through two competitive funding opportunities - the NYC Green Relief & Recovery Fund and GREEN / ARTS LIVE NYC. More than ever before, New Yorkers have come to rely on parks and open spaces, the most fundamentally democratic and accessible of public resources. Parks are critical to our city’s recovery and reopening – offering fresh air, recreation, and creativity - and a crucial part of New York’s equitable economic recovery and environmental resilience. These grant programs will help to support artists in hosting free, public performances and programs in parks, plazas, and gardens across NYC, along with the nonprofit organizations that help maintain many of our city’s open spaces. Both grant programs are administered by City Parks Foundation. The NYC Green Relief & Recovery Fund will award nearly $2M via 64 grants to NYC-based small and medium-sized nonprofit organizations. Grants will help to support basic maintenance and operations within heavily-used parks and open spaces during a busy summer and fall with the city’s reopening. Notable projects supported by this fund include the Harlem Youth Gardener Program founded during summer 2020 through a collaboration between Friends of Morningside Park Inc., Friends of St. Nicholas Park, Marcus Garvey Park Alliance, & Jackie Robinson Park Conservancy to engage neighborhood youth ages 14-19 in paid horticulture along with the Bronx River Alliance’s EELS Youth Internship Program and Volunteer Program to invite thousands of Bronxites to participate in stewardship of the parks lining the river banks.

This report measures the state of parks in Brooklyn. There are many different kinds of parks — active, passive, and pocket — and this report focuses on active parks that have a mix of amenities and uses. It is important for Brooklynites to have a pleasant park in their neighborhood to enjoy open space, meet their neighbors, play, and relax. While park equity is integral to creating One Brooklyn — a place where all residents can enjoy outdoor recreation and relaxation — fulfilling the vision of community parks first depends on measuring our current state of parks. This report will be used as a tool to guide my parks capital allocations and recommendations to the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation (NYC Parks), as well as to identify recommendations to improve advocacy for parks at the community and grassroots level in order to improve neighborhoods across the borough.

  • Guardians of Flushing Bay's
    October 20, 2020 Mr. Andrew Brooks Environmental Program Manager - Airports Division Federal Aviation Administration Eastern Regional Office, AEA-610 1 Aviation Plaza Jamaica, New York 11434 Sent via email [email protected] Dear Mr. Brooks: On behalf of the Guardians of Flushing Bay, thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed LaGuardia Airport Access Improvement Project’s Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS). Guardians of Flushing Bay (GoFB) is a coalition of residents, human-powered boaters and park users advocating for a healthy and equitably accessible Flushing Bay and Creek. Through waterfront programming, hands on stewardship, community visioning and bottom up advocacy GoFB strives to realize Flushing Waterways as a place where our most marginalized watershed residents can learn, work and thrive.We are also a member of the Sensible Way to LGA coalition, a united group of local residents, community-based organizations, and citywide partners fighting for a substantial and meaningful LGA Airtrain EIS process that produces the best alternative for all New Yorkers. And we are long standing partners of Riverkeeper, an environmental watchdog group protecting and restoring the Hudson River and its tributaries (of which Flushing Bay and Creek are included). Project Background The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (Port Authority) proposes to construct an elevated AirTrain to carry passengers between The New York City Transit Authority Mets-Willets Point and the LaGuardia Airport. The proposal comprises multiple pieces of large scale infrastructure. For operations and support infrastructure, the proposal calls for a passenger and walkway systems, parking garages, ground transportation facilities, a multilevel operations, maintenance, and storage facility with 500 Airport employee parking spaces, traction power substations located at the on-airport East Station, the Mets-Willets Point Station, a 27kV main substation, and utilities infrastructure.
