Hi Teresa and Carla,

We have gotten an ask from P.S. 9 Garden Co-Chair to rehome the belgian blocks we took out of the tree beds to the garden. IIUC from the training, These blocks were installed by Parks dept many years ago? I would like to ask Parks permission before we move them. 

Heres some photos: 

Best,

Hi Rabia.
Pretty sure there is no documentation and tracking of the historical set-up of tree beds (blocks, horse guards, etc. within my division since beds are considered "open access" public spaces.  Teresa may have more updated info tho.

Hi Carla,

Thanks for checking on that.

Hi Stewardship, do you have any info on the blocks and if we can move them to the garden?

Thanks!

Admins,

Please remove me from this group. I didn’t ask to be included. 

Much appreciated,

Adrienne
