Gallery Garden WallFlower. By July 2019, the Siempre Verde Garden had a show literally spilling over onto its walls from the "nextstore" gallery. By August, the mural was tagged. Losses noted: one bodega cat, a good ratter, who no longer patrolled the garden once the gallery took over that Lower East Side space. Also one liquor shop.

Although we are not getting the bioswale we signed up for, we are getting a flatter sidewalk. The block has several new trees, so important for absorbing stormwater, cooling and cleaning the air.
