Prospect Park recovering rapidly from massive Sandy damage — Update
Just last week large swaths of Prospect Park’s woodlands and most of its drives remained off limits to the public due to damage from Superstorm Sandy. Almost 500 trees were downed in the storm, or so badly damaged that they had to be removed.
Today almost the entire park – with the exception of the drives and Lincoln Playground – is reopen and park-goers can again wander through the scenic Midwood and rugged Ravine sections.
“Clean-up continues at a brisk pace,” Paul Nelson, spokesperson for the Prospect Park Alliance said in an email to the Brooklyn Eagle on Tuesday.
