The Elizabeth Street Garden is a community sculpture garden and green space in the Nolita neighborhood of New York City. Over the years it has been a favorite sketch site for our group. Always threatened by impending development, we have gathered to say goodbye to this quiet corner of New York many times, but it has recently been saved by an injunction preventing the garden from being evicted! Come and capture this unique spot.
