The East River community truck(s)!
We combined our ideas of having a mobile community center, beading areas of flexible use under the FDR, bringing gardening and communication to the site, and providing fishing equipment rental into one, fun-filled, unfolding truck.
The truck is situated under the FDR in the parking lot and shifts its location periodically to serve other parts of the waterfront. Volunteers from the surrounding area would manage the truck during daytime hours, providing site users with gardening and fishing tools for rent, tutorials in these activities, and access to a mini-library/community-made archive. There would also be a board for community-members to let the public know about events and happenings in the area. Everything would be free; visitors would need to provide their name, contact information, and proof of residence to rent out the equipment.
