Overview

Mission

The mission of the city hall park conservancy is to enhance and re-envision city hall park as a community asset and New York city-wide symbol, and to celebrate its past and contemporary history.

What it reported doing in 2024

We sponsor special horticultural improvements to the park, as well as host free programming in the park such as t'ai chi, yoga, readings, and volunteer gardening events.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
