Last thing is just Box Street Park, 1 of the central commitments of the Greenpoint Williamsburg rezoning.

We are apparently a handful, several million dollars short to fully fund the project as a result of some additional remediation work that needs to occur at the site.

We'd like to move funds around from a different park to fully fund this project and keep it moving, and would love your support and assistance on if there's any time before you leave.
