Greenpoint's $68.6M environmental overhaul completed after ExxonMobil settlement
Briefly

"After we held ExxonMobil accountable for its careless destruction of the Greenpoint environment, the Greenpoint Community Environmental Fund has invested millions of dollars in restoring the neighborhood and bringing residents together... It has been an honor to work so closely with this community... for generations to come."
"The successful implementation of the Greenpoint Community Environmental Fund is an excellent example of state government working with New Yorkers to hold responsible parties accountable for legacy industrial pollution to benefit both community residents and the environment."
"From a new public library to vibrant green space improvements, this community-led effort directly supported the initiatives that residents wanted... to deliver a cleaner, healthier and greener Greenpoint."
"Since its inception, the GCEF has awarded 77 grants to a variety of projects designed to improve Greenpoint's environmental health, ensuring that the investments addressed the specific needs and desires of Greenpoint residents."
