beach 116 gets some garden love

This past weekend the 116th Street Partnership, community volunteers and the NYC Parks Department gathered to brighten up Beach 116 with garden accents.

The Wave often notes about these local events. Also, information about community cleanups can be found on the NYC Parks Department website.

Get involved and support your local businesses.

The Beach 116th Street Partnership was founded by business owners along the Rockaways’ central business corridor to address the destruction after Hurricane Sandy. What started out as a response to a disaster has transformed into an effort to build a better and stronger community and establish the corridor as a key destination for residents, visitors and all New Yorkers.

Our mission is to revitalize the commercial corridor of Beach 116th Street and act as a catalyst for growth in the Rockaways following Hurricane Sandy.
