This project will be created, constructed and maintained with 100% STEEM, SBD and cryptocurrency donations! Your upvotes and donations will help make this community garden a reality. In return, we have some amazing awards for you. What will your Steem and SBD get you?

(All deliverable prizes - noted by the envelope icon - will be delivered to your address of choice by the end of September, 2017.)

Good For Community, Good for Steemit

This new neighborhood hotspot in the heart of Brooklyn will act as a colorful and dynamic billboard for the Steemit community. We Hive account@hitheryon believe that this physical design project is an important and exciting proof of concept for Steem and Steemit. We want to build something physical, lasting and impactful with cryptocurrency. Tens of thousands of people will visit Steem Park this summer. Our team will host Steemit workshops and events for the purpose of onboarding community members and activists to the Steemit platform (this includes park visitors, park representatives, volunteers, local residents and more!)

Upvotes and donations will translate directly to funding for furniture, events, park maintenance, beautification and restoration for a neighborhood in need. This project is about discovering new ways of using Steem for social good!

Schedule & Progress

Stay tuned for weekly funding and design progress updates. We’ll be posting updates and progress snapshots every step of the way. Later on, we’ll present how we can develop different sub-projects such as video documentation, exhibition, a book, and so on as we meet higher funding goals.
