Join a Mott Haven Walk & Talk to build a strong parks system! Together with local partners, we’ll explore how parks, greenways, the Bronx waterfront and open spaces are shaping the future of the South Bronx—and why investing in the public realm matters for health, safety, and climate resilience.
Meeting Point: Graham Triangle, South Bronx, next to 6 Train (3rd Ave-138th St. stop)
Date: Friday, October 24
