Washington Avenue Cleanup Day Set for March 24th

Sick of plastic bags, empty cans, and used pizza boxes spoiling the neighborhood?

Join the Washington Avenue-Prospect Heights Association and the Community Board 8 Environment/Sanitation Committee on Saturday, March 24th for a neighborhood clean up project meant to spiff up Washington Avenue and its side streets.

Volunteers should meet at Lowery Triangle (Pacific Street between Underhill and Atlantic) at 1130 AM that Saturday. Only a limited amount of cleaning supplies will be provided, so you should bring your own if possible.

The clean-up day is the first event organized by the WAPHA Beautification Committee. According to a press release, future events include "tree-pit improvements, bench installation, tree pruning, community art projects, additional clean-up days, and more."

To participate, sign up here or with a local participating merchant.
