YONKERS—Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano joined Ginsburg Development Companies and city officials on April 21 to celebrate the dedication of the Martin Ginsburg Park in the Greystone neighborhood that links Warburton Avenue to the Old Croton Aqueduct State Trail.
The new park, which is named after the GDC Founder and Principal Martin Ginsburg, features a stairway and paths that wind through the park that is beautifully landscaped with benches, gardens and shrubs. It is located across the street from GDC’s River Tides at Greystone luxury rental development. The $1-million cost of the project was shared equally by GDC and the City of Yonkers with GDC having performed the design and a portion of the construction work.
The new park is named after Martin Ginsburg in recognition of his significant contributions toward the creation of one of the preeminent apartment-living neighborhoods in the county, city officials noted.
His first project in the Greystone neighborhood was The Esplande in 1969 followed by Riverhill Tower, Riverhill Condo, Riveredge Apartments, and most recently Rivers Tides at Greystone, 1177@Greystone and Stratus on Hudson. Martin Ginsburg Park becomes the 81st neighborhood park in the Yonkers Parks system.
A ceremony unveiling the new sign to Martin Ginsburg Park was attended by city officials at the entrance to the park off Warburton Avenue. Among those joining Mayor Spano and Martin and Irene Ginsburg were Steve Sansone, Commissioner, Department of Parks and Recreation; Council President Lakisha Collins-Bellamy; Council Majority Leader Tasha Diaz; Council Minority Leader Mike Breen; Council Member Shanae Williams and Deputy Mayor Anthony Landi.
“Working with GDC, Yonkers is repurposing underutilized land, reimaging our public green spaces and reconnecting communities,” said Yonkers Mayor Spano. “Thank you to Martin Ginsburg for his continued vision and partnership in enhancing public amenities and improving the quality of life for Yonkers.”
“Developing this beautiful new public park with Mayor Spano is an example of a successful public-private partnership. It’s a win/win for the city and the residents of the Greystone neighborhood who now have direct access to the Old Croton Aqueduct State Trail,” said Ginsburg. “Creating public greenspace is vitally important for enhancing the quality of life in our communities. At Ginsburg Development Companies, we have a proud tradition of designing attractive public spaces at many of our developments,” he added.
