Public Meeting: Sharing the Park Drives

Picnic House in Prospect Park
For more information, contact Prospect Park at 718-965-8951 or info@prospectpark.org.

I’ve mentioned before that I believe a trial closure of Prospect Park to automobiles must be a part of the Taskforce’s recommendation and I hope it’s something that’s presented on Tuesaday night.  Speaking of which, if you’re walking or biking along the Park drive to get to the Picnic House, please be careful; it’s open to cars at that hour.
