The Staten Island Downtown Alliance will join the Jersey Street Merchant Association to celebrate Earth Day by executing a beautification project along Jersey Street. We will be getting our hands dirty by planting flowering succulents inside the 30 tree planters lining the Jersey Street corridor. These colorful plants are low water, hardy plants that will stand up to foot traffic and bloom year after year.
Merchants have agreed to care for the plants and keep the tree beds clean. This project is designed to bring together the residential and retail community. There will be food, games and entertainment by Redstorm Drum & Dance Troupe.
This beautification project is made possible with a grant from Councilmember Debi Rose and the New York City Department of Small Business Services.
When: April 27 Noon-3pm
Where: Jersey Street across from Columbia Meat Market
