Riverside park conservancy restores, maintains, and improves SIX miles of public parkland between WEST 59th and WEST 181st street. Working in partnership with the city of new YORK, our CORE activities include caring for the park's new and historic landscapes, repairing its structures and monuments, engaging community members in active stewardship and volunteer opportunities, running a summer sports CAMP for thousands of children, and producing hundreds of diverse public programs and events. Founded by a small group of volunteers in 1986, the conservancy now employs more than 70 professional staff, including 25 horticulturalists, who work alongside hundreds of volunteers and dozens of NYC parks employees to make improvements as diverse as the park itself and the city it serves. We are committed to ensuring that our park is a dynamic and vibrant space for ALL to enjoy. Our vision is grounded in comfort, community, environmental sustainability, and opportunities for active engagement. As we LOOK to the future, we see a park where ALL users FEEL safe and welcomed, where nature is nurtured and protected, and where recreation and programming flourish.
