Empowering New Yorkers Through the Vital Parks Explorer

Join NYC Parks for an engaging demonstration of our data tool designed to grow transparency and empower New Yorkers with information about their community's access to park amenities, services and planned improvements including renovation projects, enforcement patrol, public restrooms, and upcoming events.

As part of Vital Parks for All: Investing in NYC's Living Infrastructure, NYC Parks is working to equitably strengthen the health, environment and communities through our parks system. In this workshop, we’ll be diving into the Vital Parks Explorer tool, an interactive resource NYC Parks built to help you better understand the health and vitality of your local park system and individual park sites.

In this session, you’ll learn how to navigate the platform, tap into key data about access, park conditions, upcoming capital improvements and use this data to champion your community green spaces. This is a great opportunity to connect with NYC Parks and become a stronger voice for the green spaces you care about. Let’s work together to keep New York’s parks and gardens thriving for generations to come!
