After a series of delays, Abolitionist Park, a 1.15-acre green space in Downtown Brooklyn, opened with grass, benches, a dog run, and a playground, honoring abolitionists Harriet and Thomas Truesdell.
Mayor Eric Adams highlighted the importance of high-quality public spaces for economic recovery, stating that Abolitionist Park provides vital community space and honors the neighborhood's role in the Abolitionist Movement.
