Since 1987, the Prospect Park Alliance has been working to restore the Park’s historic landscape and renovate its landmark structures. Whether the Alliance is breaking ground on a new playground, restoring an old building, or sponsoring great events, you can read all about it here in the press room.

The Alliance has an in-house Press & Communications department. If you have any questions about press events in Prospect Park, or if you’re a media professional and you’d like to cover the park, please call (718) 965-8954 or email us. 

Requests for digital images are welcome - or you can take your own!  Prospect Park is featured in "The 50 Greatest Photo Opportunities in New York City."
