Teak Planters to Beautify Port Washington's Main Street

Residents for a More Beautiful Port Washington continue to enrich the community with small projects that bring out a special charm to the area.

This time, the organization unveiled their newest aesthetic enhancement at a Nov. 12 press conference: a dozen oversized teak planters for Main Street.

Ten of those planters were donated by the Rimmer Family Foundation, and two of which were courtesy of County Legislator Delia DeRiggi-Whitton.

At the meeting, attended by North Hempstead Town Supervisor Judi Bosworth and Councilwoman Dina DeGiorgio, RFMBPW also discussed their façade aid program for small businesses.
