NYC Cuts Ribbon on Printers Park, Now Open
Parks Commissioner Adrian Benepe today joined Council Member Maria del Carmen Arroyo to cut the ribbon on Printers Park, an imaginative new playground at Aldus Street and Hoe Avenue in the South Bronx. They were joined by youth summer campers from St. John Chrysostom School who enjoyed artistic stamping and sand art activities. The new playground, which replaced the existing outdated play equipment, was funded by $1 million allocated by Council Member Maria del Carmen Arroyo.
