Today, my team joined many community, civic, and government partners for a walkthrough of the Cross Bronx Expressway. As we work together to reimagine the future of the expressway, it’s important for us to be on the ground and gather information about current conditions.

Our #placemaking workshop with @officialympj for the Bronx River and Westchester Ave was a powerful conversation, drawing on leaders from @placemakingus’ #PlacemakingWeekendNYC.

There’s no ribbon cutting I enjoy more than one for a new park.

Today we unveiled a decades long, $41M dollar renovation of Starlight Park. Once a brownfield and the site of a gas factory, this area was a blight on our neighborhood.

We’ve recaptured it &reconnected communities

[Institute for Sustainable Communities @SustainableComm]

Congrats @officialympj! Soon, they'll transform a 30,000 sq. ft. highway underpass in the #Bronx by installing art and hosting events and activities that build community connections.
