The Stewards wanted to “let the neighborhood know that something really amazing is going on” in their beloved park [...].
And they pulled it off, thanks to a thousand bulbs from New Yorkers for Parks. But more broadly, their efforts are a kind of endless task, physically strenuous at times. But for [the Stewards], it’s a labor of love."

the street from Manhattan College’s entrance on Manhattan College Parkway...
Now, the Stewards are working on a new mission to renovate a garden just in time for spring and summer. [They] secured a $1,200 grant from the park’s department’s City Parks Foundation that made this renovation a reality."
