We were thrilled to celebrate the reopening of the first phase of Queensbridge Baby Park with @juliej_won!
NY4P led a campaign to reclaim alienated parkland next to the Queensbridge @NYCHA Houses—the largest public housing complex in the country—as part of the OneLIC rezoning.

Last week, NY4P, @nbkopenstreets, and @NBKParks turned a section of Driggs Ave running through McCarren Park into an open street for the day and threw a block party to celebrate the launch of NY4P and @TransAlt’s Car-Free Parks campaign!

Congrats to @NYCParks Commissioner Tricia Shimamura on receiving @workersjusticep's '26 Labor Champion Award!
The recently opened City Hall Park Deliverista Hub shows how parks and open spaces can serve working NYers, advancing dignity, safety, and equity.

@NYCMayor must permanently fund 115 staff whose contracts will expire in July. And @NYCCouncil must add 276 critical positions to ensure thriving parks.

"@NYCCouncil is seeking to add $40M to @NYCParks' upcoming budget — with roughly half going toward effectively quadrupling the number of PEP officers... 'Every neighborhood park would be affected [by @NYCMayor's proposed PEP cuts],' NY4P said."
