FIT 27th Street campus |
FIT has twice tried to turn 27th Street into a campus plaza. they have not been successful.Adding 20 parklets with both passive and active recreation activities a la Boulevard 41 would go a long way to give their campus a similar feel As it would be open to the public it would be the equivalent of adding a multi thousand sq foot Active recreation park to the Community Board 5 segment of the 26th Street Parkway.
FIT 8th Ave Sidewalk Active Recreation Park
On 8th Ave between 27th to 28th Street FIT has a dead space. This can become part of the parkway. One idea would be to create a small dog run here, another would be to transform this into an active recreation park on the sidewalk just as they have in China.
