Officials in New York have paused the construction of a park dedicated to queer activist/icon Marsha P. Johnson, following harsh criticism from Johnson’s family and local activists.Officials initially announced the park last year, set as a revamp of East River State Park in the Williamsburg neighborhood.
The park would have featured a new park house, restored concrete, new seating areas, and a ground mural featuring the transgender and queer pride colors.
For the moment, however, work on the redesign has gone on hiatus pending more input from the community.“The interpretive design elements of this project will not be installed until we can develop a new path forward with the community,” New York City regional director Leslie Wright said in.
