The Alliance for Downtown New York, which has a mission to provide service, advocacy, research and information to advance Lower Manhattan as a global model of a 21st century Central Business District for businesses, residents and visitors, recently celebrated a new milestone of recycling 1,000 tons of glass, plastic, metal and paper.

“‘Clean and safe’ has long been the motto for the Alliance’s on-the-streets efforts,” said Jessica Lappin, president of the Alliance for Downtown New York, in a statement. “This milestone shows how much we can accomplish, and how we can reduce waste, by working with our partners at the NYC Department of Sanitation, NYC EDC and with the support of Council Member Margaret Chin. I am very proud of hitting this number and what it means for our environment, our city and our planet.”
