Washington Square Park Project
Since Katrina, we have taken the reins in repairing and maintaining our beautiful park so that it will remain open for us to enjoy. This entails weekly trash removal as well as repairs to the benches, lights, playground etc.
Save Our Trees
The lack of adequate funding at Parks and Parkways and the wrath of Katrina have combined to create a dangerous situation for our beautiful oaks in Washington Square Park. We have created a fund that will care for our oaks providing yearly fertilization and buck moth caterpillar spraying.
Marigny Art Market / Local Music (coming soon)
Neighbors Meet Neighbors
In response to the arrival of many new residents to our neighborhood and the slow economy that is affecting our businesses, especially our local bars, we have put together a monthly get together for the neighborhood so we can get to know our new neighbors and help our local businesses.
Marigny Crime Prevention
At the Crime March on City Hall many speakers urged citizens to get involved and be a part of the solution. To that end, we dedicated our January meeting to developing strategies and we held a public meeting on 3/3 to introduce some short term strategies and discuss the more long term ones.
Marigny ReLeaf / Marigny Flowers
Part of the devastation from the storm was the damage to many of our trees, plants and flowers that lined our beautiful streets. To help make our streets beautiful again we are putting our boots and planting new trees, plants and flowers. Come and join us as we releaf and reflower our neighborhood.
