We partnered with the NYC Department of Environmental Protection to visit the Staten Island Bluebelt!
As a long running (since the 1990's!) and nationally recognized green infrastructure program (before the term "green infrastructure" existed), there is a great deal we can learn from the program! 

Date: Thursday, October 9, 2025
Time: 8:45AM to approximately 5:00PM
Bus boarding site:121 Sixth Avenue, Manhattan 

• Boundary Avenue at Zwicky Avenue (New Creek Watershed)
• street end at Rensselaer Avenue (Sweet Brook Watershed)
• Blue Heron Park (lunch stop)
• Conference House Park (Conference House Watershed)

Registration is required. Tickets are $10.00 per person and includes a box lunch. Register at https://tinyurl.com/GIBusTour2025

We know things are a little tough out there, so we went back to the old price of $10 per person. But if the ticket price is a barrier for your participation, please contact Shino at shino@soilandwater.nyc. 

The bus will leave promptly at 8:45AM. The return time is approximate and we cannot guarantee the arrival time. Please plan your evening accordingly. 

The bus is a chartered tour bus with lavatory facilities.
