Adopt-a-Greenstreet
Greenstreets is the most extensive urban beautification initiative in New York City since the start of citywide neighborhood street tree planting in the early twentieth century.
Under the Greenstreets program, Parks has converted thousands of unused concrete and striped islands formed by the city's intersecting streets into leafy, ‘pint-sized ’ parks. These triangles, medians, and curbside bump-outs not only beautify the urban landscape, but also calm busy traffic, increase pedestrian safety, and capture stormwater for irrigation.
Greenstreet adoption begins at $5,000 annually. To learn more about the program and contribute to a Greenstreet, please fill out this adoption form or contact us at (212) 360-1339.
