Submit ReviewThere is a lot going on in Prospect Park these days. The Vale of Cashmere is undergoing a massive, multimillion dollar redesign process. The two-mile section of the park’s loop known as East Drive is getting fresh asphalt and undergoing a trial redesign meant to make life easier — and safer — for both cyclists and pedestrians. The historic Lefferts House is getting a makeover that will pay proper homage to the native Lenape people who lived on the land before it was colonized, and the enslaved Africans who later worked there. The park is getting a Shirley Chisholm memorial, too. Monaco, the first Black administrator of Prospect Park, joins us to discuss all of that and more, including the infamous attack that killed a dog in the park last August.
