SEWARD PARK WITHOUT BORDERS / STRAUS SQUARE

It is anticipated that construction in Library Plaza and around the park will begin in the fall of 2018.

Meanwhile, changes are afoot in Straus Square and Canal Street between the Park and the Square. Canal Street has been closed and repaved. Potted Plants have been placed to serve as traffic barriers. Seating will be added soon. Missing trees will be planted and tree guards installed around all of the tree pits.
