SUPPORT STEEMIT PARK : A Summer Garden in Brooklyn ~ UPDATED Rewards! ~
What is Steemit Park?
“Steemit Park” is an interactive community garden in the heart of Brooklyn, New York. (Final proposed design rendering, above.) Located within the historic Herbert von King Park: Steemit Park is a pop-up installation that will be used to host Steemit meetups, local community events, workshops and dozens of activities throughout the year.
- When? : Fundraising is happening now! Steemit Park opens this Summer, 2017!
- Where? : Herbert von King Park in Brooklyn, New York. Click here to learn more about this historic hotspot of the community.
Support!
This project will be created, constructed and maintained with 100% STEEM and SBD donations! Your upvotes and donations will help make this community garden a reality. In return, we have some amazing awards for you. What will your STEEM and SBD get you?
- (All deliverable prizes - noted by the envelope icon - will be delivered to your address of choice by the end of September, 2017.)
Award B : Get a 3D Printed Flower!
Those who donate 50 STEEM or SBD will receive a 3D printed magnolia flower designed and printed by @hitheryon. The flower pays tribute to a special local landmark.
Award C : Sponsor a Bench or Planter!
Want to see your name IN Steemit Park? Those who donate 200 STEEM or SBD to the project will have a placard (5” x 12”) with their @ username alongside a QR code link that connects directly to their Steemit.com page. Placards will be installed on the base of planters and benches.
How to Support with STEEM & SBD?
Simple! Click the “Transfer” button in your Wallet. Direct your donation amount to @hitheryon and make sure to leave a short message in the “Memo” letting us know which reward (a/b/c) you are donating for.
Good For Community, Good for Steemit
This new neighborhood hotspot in the heart of Brooklyn will act as a colorful and dynamic billboard for the Steemit community. We @hitheryon believe that this physical design project is an important and exciting proof of concept for STEEM and Steemit. We want to build something physical, lasting and impactful with cryptocurrency. Tens of thousands of people will visit Steemit Park this summer. Our team @hitheryon will host Steemit workshops and events for the purpose of onboarding community members and activists to the Steemit platform (this includes park visitors, park representatives, volunteers, local residents and more!)
Upvotes and donations will translate directly to funding for furniture, events, park maintenance, beautification and restoration for a neighborhood in need. This project is about discovering new ways of using STEEM and Steemit for social good!

hi @hitheryon and @voronoi and @hansikhouse. I will be donating but have to wait a week for a power down to get some transferable steem :-)
This is such an exciting project!
That's fantastic! THANK YOU so much :D
Thank you so much!! We would love more of your feedback along the way @gardenlady.
Been thinking of supporting your project over the last couple days and it has taken me a bit to buy some SBD on Poloniex. Am I glad to say I would like to support your project to the amount of 200 SBD. Such a great idea, I wanted to be a part of it!! I have a few SP on the steemit platform, but I'm saving for a project of my own.
If there is a choice, I would choose a planter and if I got to choose what was planted in it, I would choose kale. But mainly just want to support!
Going to send SBD as soon as I hit enter on this comment.
I should also add that I am just about to start on a steemit sculpture. After it is built, I will be looking for creative ways to show the piece and support the steemit platform.
Thank you so much for working to create steemit Park
Nice write up. Thoughtful! Have great day!!
THANK YOU!! Thank you so much @dylanhobalart. We're thrilled to have you sponsor a planter. Stay tuned for updates :)
