High school students from Lyons Community High School in Brooklyn were interviewing park-goers Thursday and placed these tape figures around the park to bring attention to gang violence, choices, and the lack of discussion around the issues. Also their school project was addressing whether art can inspire change.
Parks Department workers were surveying the trees.
I wonder how the Hangmans Elm is faring… in 2012, the 300+ year old tree was in jeopardy.
