Tell The City How To Reconstruct This Greene Ave Park, Playground

BROOKLYN, NY — Two outdoor spaces in nearby Fort Greene and Clinton Hill are getting an upgrade.

The city's Parks and Recreation Department has set up two meetings next week, both to start gathering ideas about the reconstruction of an outdoor spot off Greene Avenue.

The meetings will discuss Cuyler Gore Park, a triangular green space found near Fulton Street, and Greene Playground, found near P.S. 11 between Washington and Waverly avenues.
