Plant 500 trees, restore ten city-owned vacant lots, and improve and protect water quality of Lake Erie by removing 100,000 gallons of stormwater runoff annually to create more biodiverse habitats and a restored tree canopy in the urban core. The project will create a park with significant green infrastructure and plant trees in eight low-canopy target neighborhoods in Cleveland, Ohio.
