http://www.laguardiacornergardens.org/LaGuardia_Corner_Gardens/First_Years.html In 1981 a group of neighborhood gardeners, forced to relocate when displaced from their garden by development, received approval from Community Board 2 to create a garden on a neglected strip of land on LaGuardia Place. In 1982, after a fence was completed, the gardeners divided the site into individual plots; sifted the soil, separating out the rubble; built a shed; and put in the first plants. In 1983 the boards separating the plots, the perimeter path, and the above-ground water system were completed. By 1985 the permanent water service was connected. http://www.laguardiacornergardens.org/LaGuardia_Corner_Gardens/First_Years.html#0 ed7845bf-7a02-4ed9-8d86-714802415988 http://www.laguardiacornergardens.org/LaGuardia_Corner_Gardens/First_Years_files/Media/01-LCGs%20future%20site%201981.jpg?derivative=thumb http://www.laguardiacornergardens.org/LaGuardia_Corner_Gardens/First_Years_files/Media/01-LCGs%20future%20site%201981.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px;
