Description: "Living Lots NYC was built by the 596 Acres Team. It is based on best practices identified through a pilot project they built and used from August 21, 2011 to March 1, 2015. In that time, a combination of accessible information and committed facilitation led to the official transformation of 32 NYC vacant lots into community spaces. Living Lots NYC is a clearinghouse of information that New Yorkers can use to find, unlock and protect our shared resources. 596 Acres started with vacant lots and remains committed to helping fill these holes.

Description: "We envision an adaptive reuse park that captures the eclectic vibrancy of Williamsburg, Brooklyn and honors its history by breathing new life into the site's rich industrial fabric. The idea for Maker Park springs from an awareness that our waterfront heritage is being wiped away at alarming speed and the fact that parks have the potential to be more than one-dimensional green spaces. Maker Park is posed to achieve the acute community need for green open space while also serving as a dynamic, interactive and educational public space that unites a neighborhood."
