Please save Elizabeth Street Garden Joseph Reiver Mayor Eric Adams ! Pitting precious green space against housing is wrong. My family love to read books and relax in Elizabeth Street Garden. And eat a ripe plum from one of the plum trees in the garden! Children can pick fruit from a tree!🌳

Same false choice of green space and affordable housing getting pit against each other. Both are necessary for sustainable urban living. Everyone needs housing and everyone needs green space. It shouldn’t have ever been a fight. Governing and politics was always the issue.

Love Helen Clark’s advice to young people: “A lifetime in politics has taught me that to get leaders to act, people need to make noise. Don’t be quiet, don’t just squeak, roar!”

.Leah Goodridge 🎯 “Housing versus green spaces, I understand that there is a housing crunch, but we also see, from a policy standpoint, that it is forcing people to make this sort of decision that green spaces are not important, and we see that happening throughout the city.”

She had money to buy a $5 million Hudson yards pad in cash, host a fundraiser for Eric Adams where donors say they were reimbursed, and build two Manhattan hotels, but not to pay back this desperate investor in China. Great April Xu Documented reporting. thecity.nyc/2024/10/23/chi…
