Are there any plans to revitalize it (as in complete remodel or even minor improvements)? I’ve done a little googling and can’t seem to find much. I realize that a full remodel is probably not feasible, but do you think there’s anything residents can do to help reactivate the area? I know if I saw more people lingering there, eating dinner, exercising, reading, etc, that I’d be more more inclined to do the same. It seems like if more people really used it, it would make it more of a real park. Yes, there’s way too much concrete, but the park does have some attractive trees and sitting spaces--maybe it has the potential to become more of a meeting space like Washington Square Park or Tompkins Park. Also, on the website it says that yoga classes will be offered in May, but I haven’t seen anything. Do you have any knowledge of this?

Last question: how did Spring Street get the city to approve all those flower pots and trees? I would love to see more of that on other streets and I wonder how that happens. I’m sure it’s harder than it looks though!
