Honoring Harry Greenberg in Tompkins Square Park
Back in 2010, Harry Greenberg retired after 23 years as the supervisor of Tompkins Square Park. (Lincoln Anderson did a nice feature on Harry in The Villager here.)

Awww! That's great! Congrats to Harry, he really did pull through the ugly years and gave us all a lovely space for the entire neighborhood.
Yeah Harry. I was there for the presentation. He carried the torch to clean up the place with the help of Amy. They did a great job. I love them both.

Harry Greenberg served our community honorably, generously and selflessly, from the riot days of resistance, through the relatively peaceful though unfortunately greatly-gentrified present, making Tompkins Square Park available to everyone.
He is a good man and I was fortunate to have known him....
