It seems like lots of people want change/improvement in the park so if they can all unite the community it could be a help rather than random 311 calls and random complaints to community board committees.

Does anyone know if there is a contact point or mailing list to get on?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-8836666414391994092022-10-06T07:41:00.432-04:002022-10-06T07:41:00.432-04:00Great initiative and will definitely help but it&#...Great initiative and will definitely help but it's depressing the city is neglecting care for the park. Does anyone know how we would go about organizing one of the constant cleanup groups that hires individuals to clean the streets that seem ubiquitous in midtown?
