The value of NYC real estate is not only linked to the financial market, but the current conditions of our city. The more beautiful our city is, the more people will want to live and invest here! Our Mayor, Michael Bloomberg, has set aside over $400 million to plant trees, reforest existing parks, and create new Greenstreets. This is a young and vibrant organization making a huge difference in our city.
“NYRP and the City of New York are leading an initiative to plant one million trees in public and private open spaces throughout the five boroughs over the next decade. Million Trees NYC is a citywide collaboration with community, non-profit, government, and corporate partners, and the citizens of NYC. We will focus on communities with the greatest need for green.”
