Greened up Jones Street promises summer revival
Jones street in the Greenwich Village area, once a stark byway, is being brightened by new window boxes, trees, and ivy clad walls. Greenwich House Settlement plans a $5 prize for the best display by August, with Arbor Day trees and a rear yard ivy arbor adding charm. Block residents hope asphalt paving and lawn parties for house mothers on Saturdays, with music on the steps if $100 is donated for continued summer concerts.
