For decades neighborhood kids and their families have enjoyed Vesuvio Playground and its children’s swimming pool. Back when it was called Thompson Square Playground, many of us took our kids there – to swing, run around, splash and play in the sun. We’d like to preserve this treasured resource for today’s families and future generations. The GLWD-QT Development 180 Sixth Avenue towers will cast long shadows on the playground and pool — even on June 21st, the longest, sunniest day of the year. Their own shadow studies show it clearly.  Save the sunshine at Vesuvio — stop the 180 Sixth Avenue development by supporting our legal fund.

The developers’ own studies show the Vesuvio Playground and Pool cast in shadow: June 21st shadows
