Fort Washington Park in Upper Manhattan was the first public green space that New York Restoration Project (NYRP) Founder Bette Midler targeted for her initial restoration and greening efforts. The Park is also well-known as home to the Little Red Lighthouse, one of New York City's most charming landmarks and treasures. Lighthouse tours, music, arts and crafts, fishing and hayrides. Food vendors are abundant and a number of community organizations provide information and encourage community involvement in many aspects of New York City life – particularly greening and sustainability efforts.
