Summary

The Bradley St. Greenspace group has created and maintained a greenspace that extends along Bradley St. The group has also worked on Mill River Rd. in previous years. The Bradley St. greenspace beautifies the highway sound barrier that borders the street, and provides a space for neighbors to meet and work together. Bradley St. hosts an annual 4th of July party for the neighborhood, which provides an opportunity for the group to share this space with the community. This year, the Bradley St. group focused on caring for the greenspace on Bradley St. by weeding, mulching, and replanting in the space.
