Uni Project wraps up Pop-up West Harlem!

Aug 15, 2018

This week, we wrapped a special series of pop-up installations in West Harlem that landed at Sheltering Arms Pool, Jacob H. Schiff Playground, and a street festival on Hamilton Place. Our work at Sheltering Arms Pool was in coordination with New York City Department of Parks and Recreation Cool Pools initiative, an effort to spruce up local pools in underserved neighborhoods and help residents make use of these amenities. Pop-up West Harlem! was made possible in part by West Harlem Development Corporation.
