This is a very important matter, especially for the Bronx and Queens! I speak as a Manhattanite, which also is threatened at times.

Natural surrounds, no matter how attenuated are a spark of joy to all humans. Don't touch the parks!!!

i suggest the Mayor and all elected officials go walk on the Brooklyn Bridge and get an idea, from how crowded it is, about how very much we need ALL the open spaces we have, IF NOT MORE..Taking ANY of them AWAY seems downright insane.

What would we do without NYC parks? Green is my favorite color because green reminds us we're alive in the natural world.

As a recent letter- writer just stated in "The Villager"...the Public Trust Doctrine states that parks are for public use to benefit children and the community.

All living things NEED sunlight and space to thrive. The recent construction of extremely tall buildings is casting more & more of NYC in long shadows darkening our environment & our lives! Even our beloved Central Park has fallen victim!!!

the city is unbearable without more green spaces! City becomes inhospitable. We need many more public green spaces for mental health in this underserved city.

The gardens and playground in Washington Square Village are an oasis in a city that is being over-developed.

NYU's current density already has a negative impact on the neighborhood's residents.
