Children's Aid Society

14-32 West 118th Street
Harlem, Manhattan
Founded in 1994

This play space was greened up with trees, shrubs and perennials thanks to the support of the Louis and Anne Abrons Foundation. New benches, picnic tables and a mural make this a cheerful spot for the children attending after school programs and summer camp.

 

Due to air quality conditions, GrowNYC outdoor programming sites have been adjusted. Greenmarkets will be open on Saturday, June 10, and Sunday, June 11. All compost sites will be closed on Saturday, June 10, except Union Square Greenmarket.
