Who we are.

Our Co-op building has been creating a rooftop garden for the past 4 years.  We are located on the Upper West Side of Manhattan in a 10-story, 100 year old pre-war building.  This garden has become a tranquil respite from the crazy pace of New York City, and has created a peaceful sense of community for all who use it.  It has been a labor of love for those of us who make it happen.  You’d be surprised how difficult it is to find dirt on the Upper West Side, not to mention large planters and garden hoses.  But the effort becomes worthwhile during those balmy summer evenings when the sunset clouds are reflecting off the skyscrapers and you can lean back and feel a breeze off the river while catching a few stars in Orion's belt.
