Green Space Connections is creating and activating community-designed open space at four NYCHA public housing developments with and for 14,000 residents in Brooklyn and the Bronx.
To amplify the lessons of the project and empower a wider reach of New York public housing residents, Green Space Connections is creating a practical design and resources guide for non-profit organizations and resident leaders to navigate the process of bringing open space projects to their communities.
Green Space Connections is supported by a grant from the Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust. The project is being spearheaded by the Fund for Public Housing and the Design Trust at four NYCHA developments: Marlboro Houses and Roosevelt Houses in Brooklyn and Castle Hill Houses and Patterson Houses in the Bronx.
Project development and programming is supported by our Green Space Partner, The Center for Justice Innovation
