Gramercy Park Archives:

The Story of Gramercy Park 1831-1921

Written by John B. Pine, Trustee of Gramercy Park and President of the Gramercy Park Association

"In 1912 the Gramercy Park Association was organized by residents and others interested to preserve and maintain the residential character of the neighborhood of Gramercy Park and to promote the interests and comfort of the property owners and residents of the neighborhood."

It is the Gramercy Park Block Association that now continues this mission.

We have digitized this out of print book for our Gramercy Park archives.

Tree and Shrub Maintenance - Park Closed


Today Bartlett Tree Experts are in the Park for deep root fertilization on the shrubbery.

They are air spading the roots and balancing the soil around the magnolia tree near the shed, and have widened the area around the tree by 3'. The tree is stressed but the roots are alive. Hopefully the tree will be saved.

They will also select five trees and expose the root flare.  Tomorrow they will deep fertilize the lawns. 

Whenever there are trucks in the Park during work projects, the Park will be closed.
