Teresa’s Park officially opens tomorrow

Tomorrow afternoon the newest park in the neighborhood officially opens. Teresa’s Park fills a neglected patch of greenery on W 39th St west of 9th Ave, formerly known as Bird Park. Earlier this year Cultivate HKNY ran a crowdfunding campaign to raise money for the park, bringing in $1400 for the project. DNAinfo had a piece back in June about the son of the woman the park is being named after, with details on the project too.

The ribbon cutting ceremony begins tomorrow at 2:30pm. Given that the park in on W 39th St, it should prove popular on weekends with the flea market visitors.
