Greenworks nods to Next Great City Recommendation

Greenworks nods to Next Great City Vacant Lot action by recommending using  vacant City-owned land for urban agriculture and community gardens and reduce blight.

GreenPlan

In the Spring of 2006, GreenPlan Philadelphia was created by 13 city agencies with the goal of sustaining, creating and improving open space in Philadelphia.  You can read more about the process and mission here.

Next Great City will be reviewing the findings in GreenPlan and using it to find areas of Philadelphia where open space is needed and to connect those needs with available vacant lots.
