NYC's parks are vital public infrastructure, but the cracks are showing. Our new report finds the city's average public park is 73 years old and 20% have gone at least 25 years without a major infrastructure upgrade. nycfuture.org/research/a-new…

Shout out to one of our favorite plants on Swale - White Clover! "The ubiquitous plant alters its defense systems in a tougher environment, prompting researchers to call it a perfect test species for study as urban areas expand"
