Southern Barton Heights has a very active Civic Association that meets at Sandy’s the 3rd Tuesday monthly. We welcome our neighbors to join!

Some of us who live in SBH also watched the storm waters rise and are still waiting for the park to reopen. It was a jewel that has really been missed.

After reading the article, why isn’t any screaming for $500,000 for the repair of BP. Is missing $500,000 causing the delay of the repair of the park?

I just checked the Free Press’ website and read section “A” and “B.” There was no mention of Battery Park. Is this story from an old issue?
ALTHOUGH, I did see one of Battery Park’s own advertised on page 9 of section “B.” Check this out BPCA!

The Free Press has an article about BP and the finishing touches they are putting on it. Quite a different perspective from those doing the work v. those whining about it.

I would also like to mention that the BCPA has formed a “Friends of Battery Park” group that anyone can participate in, no matter where they live, for the beautification of the park and the park alone. (Plantings, beautification, wish list items) However, that group can not really do anything until the park reopens, whenever that may be. They are in the process of just starting up and need funds to get off of the ground. It would be all donated money and those donations are tax deductible. The group is in need of volunteers, again which are very hard to come by. Should you be interested in this group, please come to a meeting to find out more information. Battery Park Civic Association meets every Tuesday at 6:30. 2803 Dupont Circle, The Stonehouse.
