Project Listing by Ecosystem This website has 16 proposals for
potential restoration ecology projects, all of which are located within
the political boundaries of New York City. All proposals are offered
freely for use and implementation - we wish for these ideas to be
implemented and the concepts that they contain popularized.

Manhattan Marsh Re-creation West Harlem Marshlands Terrestrial Bayside Acacia Cemetery Central Park's North End Governors Island Inwood Forests Manhattan Forests Manhattan Maritime Holly Forest Northern Manhattan Forests Operation Renovo Gardens Rockaway Beach Time Capsule NYC The proposals were created as part of a graduate seminar entitled Restoration and Urban Ecology of New York City offered by the Department of Ecology, Evolution, and Environmental Biology at Columbia University, taught by James Danoff-Burg. These proposals were all created so as to have an ecosystem level focus, so they are not geared towards restoring a single species. All detail the historical and current conservation issues present at that site and also contextualize the ideas within the most current and relevant theories of restoration ecology. Thank you for your concern and interest in Restoring New York City. |
