Our communities have been speaking up against the new jails for years. @NYCMayor $3.8 billion in taxpayer money should go towards 100% true low income housing at this site, not the planned mega jail. Protect Chinatown. Stop displacement. Build true low income housing.

Open letter to @ZohranKMamdani in support of preserving Elizabeth Street Garden. (1/3) mailchi.mp/elizabethstree…

We’re grateful to the 300+ local businesses & organizations who in 2024 signed on to an open letter urging Mayor Adams to preserve Elizabeth Street Garden. A special thanks to the ESG volunteers who went around the neighborhood collecting the signatures!

We’re grateful to the 130+ seniors who live in the neighborhood and wrote to the Adams administration in 2024 urging them to save Elizabeth St Garden. Many of the seniors would qualify for the housing but recognized the importance of ESG & more viable empty lots nearby.

Back in 2024 students from PS 130 hand wrote letters to the mayor urging him to save Elizabeth Street Garden. For many years the garden has been a place of environmental education for local PS students who often visit to learn about gardening & sustainable stewardship.

We’re grateful for all who’ve supported ESG over the years. Our volunteers who open & maintain the garden! Supporters who wrote 1,000,000+ letters! Everyone who worked on preserving this beautiful community place while delivering more permanently affordable housing! Thank you!

This week’s featured work from our Call to Artists is a series of sketches by Leslie Sim Submit your ESG inspired work to art@elizabethstreetgarden.com 🌱
