The Daily News voted CLG as the city ’s Best Community Garden . Although it is landscaped and maintained by a group of members and volunteers, the garden is open to all visitors. Also open to dogs!

Sssh. One of East Village 's best secrets.

Beautiful little garden to relax in. Just be sure to bring bug spray

This is a great place to sit and relax, bring a book or laptop. There's a cute swing and rocking chair too. Go to Lula's down the block for great ice cream !

Small and cozy garden for relax

Dogs are allowed, but as with any park , keep them on leash. And as they say... if they poop, you MUST scoop!

Jen Digney

The swinging porch is awesome!

A mini Eden from the concrete jungle.
