Park - Open Space - Eco Active Area

The storm water recycling system needs to be finished, then this large garden can provide greater security to the surrounding neighborhood from heavy rain events. El Jardin is one of the only permeable areas. 

It's the 44th Annual GreenThumb Harvest Fair on Saturday, September 28, 2024 from noon to 4:00 p.m. at El Jardin del Paraiso at 710 E 5th St. in Manhattan, hosted by the NYC Parks GreenThumb division! Join GreenThumb community gardeners in celebrating the start of fall with workshops, live entertainment, healthy cooking, and more! Rain date is Sunday, September 29th.

This tree has stayed strong through many storms. It looks a bit battered but it's home to a lively squirrel family and probably other species, too.

Though small, this park is usually not crowded and full of blossoms, making it a pleasure to chill out in. Fountains, concerts, picnic tables etc. but no sports facilities.
