Gramercy Park

By sheer coincidence, I was tweeting about Gramercy Park, a private park in NYC, and then Gothamist posted this very enlightening and well researched piece about Gramercy Park. Now the Mayor is talking about revisiting this whole idea of a gated park for the affluent residents of that neighborhood alone!

What I tweeted about was the fact that I’ve been passing by this beautiful park for decades now, and it’s almost always completely empty. It’s such a waste, and just seems wrong that it can be locked up and unused like this.
