'These budget cuts will hit parks in low- and moderate-income neighborhoods particularly hard since they don't benefit from the private funding which supports parks in wealthier areas. Regional parks like St. Mary's in the Bronx or Astoria Park in Queens, which serve as anchors for their communities, will be left particularly wanting. We propose funding a master planning process for such mid-sized parks to make sure they get the investment they deserve.'
