    Soloman Garden

     

     

    The Soloman Garden was the result of a partnership with Parks Department, PS. 175, P.S. 175 P.T.A., The Parks Department, Council Member Koslowitz, Citizens Committee of NYC, Lowes Foundation, and the community. The partnership resulted in an investment of over $80,000 to fix up a 3,000 square foot space closed to the community for years.
