WHAT WE DO Community Land Trust A community land trust is a way for people to come together to own and control land for the good of the community.We established the Mott Haven-Port Morris Community Land Stewards to acquire land for public use.This ensures that community members preserve a stake in our neighborhood. LEARN MORE Community Managed Waterfront In the South Bronx, our waterfront is dotted with waste transfer stations and power plants.We envision transforming the Mott Haven-Port Morris waterfront into a public space for residents to enjoy.This will also address climate change impacts by helping prevent flooding and protect the community.
