Welcome to fall in Carroll Gardens!
You may remember that the New York Parks Department invited the Carroll Gardens community to a public visioning session for the future of Carroll Park back in February 2019.

The last top-to-bottom renovation of our beloved neighborhood park was in 1994. As we have all noticed, the park has begun to look a bit tired and will need a makeover in the near future. To prepare for that time, the Parks Department asked local residents to contribute their ideas for a park redesign.

Almost 150 people, young and old, attended the February visioning session to make suggestions and discuss options for a new design.

The Parks Department is now ready to come back to the community to present the Carroll Park Community Vision Plan "that was created after hearing your feedback."

This is the meeting notice from the Parks Department:
Remember that this is just another step towards a park redesign. there will be ongoing opportunities for discussion and modifications to the design. It will take some time to secure funding and to reach consensus on a final design. However, we should all be involved in making it the best design possible.
