Top Recyclers
In a June 9 ceremony at the Williamsburg Community Center, NYCHA and nonprofit partner GrowNYC celebrated the exceptional work of Latimer Gardens staff in properly setting out their development’s recyclables. Latimer Gardens met Department of Sanitation pick-up and quality control standards 100 percent of the time.
NYCHA’s recycling program was launched in 2015, and now every NYCHA resident has access to recycling, with 1,500 recycling bins installed at developments across the city and more than 1,400 NYCHA staff trained on recycling procedures.
