"While we have been expecting the notice to be served, we are very disappointed that Mayor Eric Adams and Deputy Mayor Maria Torres-Springer have refused to hold off on the eviction despite ongoing negotiations and thousands of letters from the public demanding they save the garden," the Elizabeth Street Garden non-profit said in a statement.
"[The garden] really became a work of art in its own right," Joseph Reiver told The Art Newspaper in August.
"The proposed development, Haven Green, will consist of 123 affordably priced studio apartments for seniors, along with retail space on the ground floor and offices for Habitat for Humanity, which has partnered with the city on the development plan."
