Tell us about your experience with trash on Vanderbilt Avenue

PHNDC is partnering with the Center for Zero Waste Design to develop solutions to better manage the waste created in on Vanderbilt Avenue. Whether you are a resident of Vanderbilt Avenue, a visitor to the street, or a business operating here, we would love to hear your perspective on trash and recycling! 

This project has received a grant from the Association for a Better New York, and is part of the Put Waste to Work: For Vibrant Streetscapes, Green Jobs and Healthy Neighborhoods advocacy campaign.
