About Us

Our mission is to create a sense of community for our streets. We promote neighborhood harmony, quality of life and safety through collaborative planning, community action, and policy advocacy. We welcome all neighborhood constituencies to participate—co-ops, condos, renters, religious institutions, schools, and businesses—joining together to collectively define our needs and be more effective when addressing them to local and city government. Our objectives are to:

• Beautify and enhance the neighborhood experience

• Create ways to communicate quickly and effectively with all members of our community

• Reach out to our government with one strong and effective voice
